Volume 5, Chapter 98: Good luck
Regardless of whether you are a senior or a junior, you can only take one day off per month, and no two people can take leave at the same time.
The big shopkeeper and the small shopkeeper are naturally not included in this list.
Boys from other offices must also comply with these regulations, except when they are away on official business.
Since Zhuang Jiashi will soon go to Mingzun Island, and the heavy burden will fall on Lexing's shoulders from now on, Zou Yi agrees to Zhuang Jiashi's request for the first time and allows both of them to take a day off at the same time.
Hua Jingyi, on the other hand, had to stick to her post no matter what, so naturally she could not follow Lexing to Zou Mansion as a guest.
Zhuang Jiashi did not plan to build another mansion of his own. He had always lived in his father-in-law's mansion. He focused on refining weapons, so there was no need for it. Moreover, Zou Yi rarely had time to return to his mansion. His time and energy All was spent on Baoxuan Pavilion.
In such a large mansion, Zou Ying often lives alone.
Stepping into the heavy door, the scenery inside is particularly pleasing to the eye, with carved beams and painted buildings everywhere, luxury everywhere, and everything you look at is resplendent. The only thing that is out of place is that all kinds of weapon refining materials are visible in piles here and there, which can easily destroy the beautiful scenery in front of you.
Entering the hall, a figure came into view.
"Big shopkeeper!"
Lexing didn't expect Zou Yi to be there, so he quickly saluted.
Just as Zou Yi was about to say something, Zou Ying, who was smiling brightly, came out of the kitchen, presumably making some delicious dishes for the guests.
When she saw it was Le Xing, she was very surprised. In the blink of an eye, her face turned cold and she said angrily: "Brother-in-law, why is it you?"
Zhuang Jiashi knew that she was compatible with sister Zhu Yaojin. Everyone had their own affairs and did not take such a title to heart.
"Hello, Madam Sister-in-law!" Lexing greeted quickly.
Madam sister-in-law?
Zou Ying felt as if she had swallowed an egg, her throat was choked and uncomfortable.
However, she quickly recovered and returned the gesture.
"Brother-in-law, why did you come to Baoxuan Island? Did sister Jin'er come with you?"
Before Lexing could speak, Zhuang Jiashi on the side replied: "It has been more than a year since Lexing joined Baoxuan Pavilion, and now he works in the Treasure Artifact Institute with me."
"Brother-in-law, do you know how to refine weapons?" Zou Ying was a little surprised.
"What do you mean by meeting? Brother Lexing's skill in weapon refining is almost catching up with mine." Zhuang Jiashi said with a smile.
"You can do it!" Zou Ying rolled her eyes at him and asked Lexing again: "Brother-in-law, where is sister Jin'er? Why don't you bring her here with you?"
Lexing finally had the chance to speak and immediately replied: "She is still on Qiongming Island. I came here alone."
When Zou Ying heard this, her eyes lit up, and she said angrily: "You have been here for more than a year, and I didn't know until today... you three stinky men, you kept it secret from me!"
Le Xing smiled.
Zou Yi and Zhuang Jiashi's son-in-law seemed to be used to her temper, and they didn't care at all about her disrespect.
However, with outsiders present, the two of them still looked a little ugly.
Zou Yi waved his sleeves: "I have something important to do, so I won't accompany you. Lexing, you're welcome. Just treat this place as your home."
After saying that, without waiting for Lexing's reaction, he turned around and left in a hurry.
Zou Ying was in a daze: "Why is dad so good to him with such a temper?" But she was overjoyed in her heart.
Once Zou Yi left, Zhuang Jiashi became more natural.
Regardless of the presence of outsiders, he stretched out his hand and pinched Zou Ying's face, then laughed and said, "Why don't you get busy?"
"You're going to die!" Zou Ying slapped his big hand away and gave him a fierce look. However, she couldn't hide the endless affection in her eyes. She turned around and glanced at Lexing again before twisting her waist and entering the kitchen.
The food and wine are all served, so sumptuous!
The three of them were eating and chatting, and the two couples
Sit on one side and Lexing sit on the other side alone.
"Brother-in-law, how can you be willing to leave sister Jin'er alone at home?"
After several glasses of strong wine, a few blushes appeared on Zou Ying's face.
They are all people with good cultivation, and no matter how strong the alcohol is, it is difficult to change their appearance and appearance. However, people who practice are boring and boring. When they have such an opportunity, they always want to experience a different life, so naturally they do not deliberately use it. Cultivation is necessary to suppress drunkenness, otherwise, such a table of good wine and food will be wasted.
"Alas!" Lexing had a drink with Zhuang Jiashi. After the strong wine was in his stomach, he sighed and said, "I didn't want to come, but my family has orders and I dare not disobey them!"
"God King Qiongming, no, he should be called God Lord Qiongming. He has a unique vision. Brother Lexing has extraordinary attainments in weapon refining. If he doesn't come to the Treasure Pavilion, his talents will really be buried!" Zhuang Jiashi said.
"That's all. I have to participate in the God Island experience in the future. With my strength, I don't know if I can come back alive!"
"Brother-in-law also wants to participate in the God Island experience?" Zou Ying was a little surprised, and then comforted: "It's okay, brother-in-law! Da Shitou will also go, just let him take care of you."
"Brother Zhuang is going too?"
Zhuang Jiashi nodded and said: "Well, I want to take a look. Brother Lexing, there is no need to worry too much. The island of God is not as evil as what is said outside. In addition, the overall strength of the monks has increased now. This experience on the island of God will be of great benefit to our generation. For a monk, there are only advantages and no disadvantages."
"Don't worry, brother-in-law! Your level of weapon refining is so high, the adults will not let anything happen to you easily."
"When the time comes, I'll have to rely on Brother Zhuang to take care of him." With a ready-made thigh to hug, Lexing would naturally not let go of such an opportunity.
"Easy to say." Zhuang Jiashi was in a good mood.
The three of them continued chatting.
At a certain moment, Lexing felt something strange under the table. He looked up in surprise and met Zou Ying's eyes that were about to drip. He immediately sat up straight and shrank his feet slightly to prevent the other party's toes from touching his legs. On grinding.
Zou Ying was very unhappy, pouted, got up and went to the kitchen.
This girl is too courageous. Le Xing cursed.
When she came back, Zou Ying had two more cups in her hands, filled with red liquid.
"That's almost it. Each of you can drink a glass of fairy dew and have a good sleep."
"Thank you madam!" Zhuang Jiashi took it with a happy face, and then said to Lexing: "Brother Lexing, this is the fairy dew prepared with a secret recipe. It has an incredible effect on tempering divine power. Due to the trouble of making it, I have been working for half a year. It’s hard to have such a drink, so you’re lucky.”
"Le Xing is scared, thank you so much, Mrs. Sister-in-law!" Le Xing thanked her sincerely.
"Why is it so mysterious? There is no need to praise me, just drink!"
After drinking the fairy dew, there was no taste at all, just like drinking a glass of water. Lexing was very surprised, but when he looked at the opposite side, Zhuang Jiashi was pouting, showing an expression of enjoyment.
Le Xing imitates others and wants to understand the secrets.
Perhaps it was a psychological effect, but he felt a little dizzy, and then he fell over.
Opposite him, Zhuang Jiashi murmured something unknown and fell asleep.
"Stop pretending to be dead."
The sweet voice reached Le Xing's ears, and he was shocked. He straightened up instantly, only to see Zou Ying standing in front of the door waving to him.
"Brother Zhuang..."
Lexing pretended not to see it, stood up and pushed Zhuang Jiashi.
"Even if you cut him a few times with a knife now, he won't wake up." Zou Ying said with a smile.
"Then I..."
"Of course what you drank was not real ambrosia."
"oh."
"Oh what? Why don't you come over quickly?"
Le Xing hesitated.
Zou Ying quit and rushed back again
, grabbed Lexing, and said fragrantly: "Brother-in-law, I said that as long as you come to Baoxuan Island, I will definitely accompany you well. My little sister is a person who keeps her promises, how can she be as cruel as you?" People have been coming to Baoxuan Island for more than a year and they didn’t even tell me?”
"Sister-in-law...Mrs. Sister-in-law..."
"How dare you call me that again?" Zou Ying said angrily.
"Little... little warbler."
"Well, brother-in-law, Xiaoying is yours today. Brother-in-law, kiss me!" Zou Ying raised her head, her eyes moving.
"But..." Lexing glanced in the direction of Zhuang Jiashi with a guilty conscience.
"Have you changed your gender? Or are you simply a traitor but not courageous? You dared to do that to me that day under the nose of Sister Jin'er. Why are you so weak today?"
"Who said that?" Lexing blurted out, his heart was about to move, and he couldn't help being startled: "That cup of fairy dew?"
"That's fake fairy dew, but I added something to make it more enjoyable for you." Zou Ying said with a bad smile.
"You...you are really..."
What is it really? Lexing could no longer speak because his mouth was blocked.
This time, he truly appreciated Zou Ying's boldness and boldness!
"Can't the Institute of Treasures take one day off every month? You have to come to me on that day. No, one month is too long. You are from another institute and you can come out at ordinary times. You can't look for other women."
More than an hour later, Zou Ying was satisfied. The two of them were dressed neatly, as if nothing had happened. Zou Ying kissed the corner of Lexing's mouth and made her request domineeringly.
Before Lexing could speak, he heard the other party say again: "You can't refuse, otherwise, I will tell my big stone that you bullied me!"
Seeing a faint smile on her lips, as if her conspiracy had succeeded, Lexing instantly felt like he had been dragged into a pirate ship by her. However, this feeling was not uncomfortable, but rather he was looking forward to it.
After giving her a kiss in return, Lexing didn't care about anything, and his hands began to act dishonest again.
Zou Ying's whole body felt weak, she held down his offending hands and said angrily: "You were too cruel just now, you can't do it today, let's do it next time!"
"That fairy dew..."
"It's been prepared for you."
Zou Ying glanced at him charmingly, turned around and left the room.
Lexing returned to his seat and had just taken the cup with real fairy dew from Zou Ying's hand when he heard her say again: "By the way, brother-in-law, there are so many eyesores here. Don't come looking for me. I can't go to the treasure house to look for it either." You... let's do this, I'll find a place outside another day, and then I'll find a way to inform you."
Her suggestion suited Lexing's wishes. You must know that there is also a Hua Jingyi in the treasure house! He doesn't want to cause any trouble! However, after boarding Zou Ying's pirate ship, he can't make a big fuss with Hua Jingyi in the future, otherwise, his small body will be squeezed out sooner or later!
The fairy dew went down the throat, sour and sweet, leaving Le Xing with endless aftertaste, and the fairy power in his body immediately began to stir.
Let’s just say, this is what real fairy dew should feel like!
"Be good, have a good sleep!"
Lexing's consciousness gradually blurred, and with Zou Ying's soft voice, he fell into a sound sleep.
…
When Lexing woke up, it was already three days later.
Zhuang Jiashi woke up one day earlier than him and had already gone to Mingzun Island.
Zou Ying told him that Zhuang Jiashi had already informed the Treasure Institute that he had only been delayed for two days because of the fairy dew, so he didn't need to worry.
As Zou Ying said, there were many people in this place, especially since Zhuang Jiashi was not at home, and some disturbances might be known to others. Therefore, the two of them did not do anything out of the ordinary.
Finally, Zou Ying watched Lexing leave.
