"father!"
"Mom!", it's true, no girl can grow up, even Xin Bing and Xin Ling are already in their twenties, but after seeing their parents, they still hugged them like children, and they were In public.
"Okay! Okay! Don't cry! Look, aren't you married to that Wu Shengyou?" The woman said comfortingly, patting Xinbin's back.
"Xinbin! Let Daddy see which person suits your wishes!" On the side, the man said jokingly.
"Dad, as everyone said, you are just trying to redress the injustice against me. You have never thought about kidnapping your wife." After hitting the man twice, Xin Bin said with embarrassment.
"Hey, no matter what, you brought the person back, we have to meet him!"
On the side, listening to the exchanges between Xinbin's family of four, Yang Yu felt that these parents were not so unsatisfactory after all!
"Miss, Miss, are you okay?" As he said that, another man ran over to the side, but this man was concerned about Xin Ling, who still had blood stains on his body.
It's over, it's over. Yang Yu still knows this man. He is Hou Liang who accompanied Xin Ling on the adventure. Yang Yu even calls him Uncle Liang!
Uncle Liang is a more careful observer than Xin Ling. What should he do if he sees it at a glance?
"Brother Qi Xiang, where are you going?" As soon as Yang Yu took a step, Hou Ping stopped Yang Yu.
On the other side, the five people who heard this also walked towards Yang Yu. It seemed that they were very curious about Yang Yu.
It's over, it's over, what should I do? I have never seen any big storms. Even if I meet my future father-in-law and mother-in-law, I can't be so panicked! Moreover, this is not just father-in-law and mother-in-law!
Thinking about it, Yang Yu bit his tongue, and this time, Yang Yu's nervous face immediately became sad. However, from the perspective of others, Yang Yu's expression seemed to show that someone was unhappy!
"Um, are you the winner of the concubine competition?" After seeing Yang Yu's face, the man's face also showed disgust and disappointment.
So what can be done? Yang Yu is wearing the useless ice silkworm snow skin, and now he looks like a man with a weak kidney. Which man is willing to hand over his daughter to him.
"Ahem, yes, Young City Lord." Yang Yu didn't say anything about the man's incomprehension, but he was the happiest if he didn't want to.
"Qian, what's that look in your eyes! Don't look at this young man. He's a bit pale. This is not necessarily a sign of weakness. I think he must be good." She pushed the man, and the woman said with a smile.
ah! Yang Yu was shocked. Is this woman's sixth sense so accurate? How does she know that she is worthy? And the way the woman looked at Yang Yu seemed a little kind.
"Your name is Qi Xiang, right! Which area of the Immortal Family are you from?" Before Yang Yu could say anything, the woman actually started asking Yang Yu questions. This question was like asking for his home address. But Yang Yu hasn’t been to the place the woman mentioned yet.
"Don't be nervous. I am the mother of Bi'er and Ling'er. My name is Qi Xiaoyun. Maybe we are from the same area!" Seeing that Yang Yu didn't answer for a long time, the woman actually revealed her identity.
Wow! Is it such a coincidence? No wonder the woman was so polite to him. It turned out that they were all members of the Qi family. Living in Alchemy City, it was indeed difficult to meet someone from a noble family.
"Hello, auntie, I do have an immortal constitution, but I am not from a noble family. I come from a wandering family outside the noble family." Seeing the serious look on the woman's face, Yang Yu chose to answer her question head-on.
"Really? That's a pity, but we are both members of the Qi family! Now we are even more intimate!" Yang Yu didn't know why, but Qi Xiaoyun looked at him like this.
"Mom, what are you talking about? You haven't even written your horoscope yet!" On the side, Xin Bin ran over and took the woman's arm, started to sway, and then whispered something in her ear.
"Little brother, have we met somewhere?" When Yang Yu was still worried about what Xin Bin would say to the woman, Hou Liang's voice came from the side.
"Uncle Liang, you remember wrongly, we have never met, never met." After blurting out, Yang Yu was stunned for a second. At this moment, he wanted to slap himself twice.
Sure enough, when Yang Yu naturally called out Uncle Liang, the six of them looked at Yang Yu in front of them with curiosity.
"Um, um, oh, Miss Xin Ling mentioned you to me just now on the giant bird." Scratching his head, Yang Yu forcefully gave him a reason.
"Oh? Did I say that?" Yang Yu's serious expression made Xin Ling doubt whether she had said it.
"Miss Xinbin, the city lord wants to see you." Just when Yang Yu didn't know what to do next, a guard ran over and reported the news.
"Oh, um, the city lord also wants to meet his future grandson-in-law." After Yang Yu hesitated for a moment, the guard still said this order.
It’s no wonder that the guards are surprised. After all, their information is not that bright. In their opinion, this competition to recruit a bride is just a show. The final winner will definitely be Wu Shengyou. They didn’t expect that a famous person would appear here. A little-known man with kidney deficiency.
"Um, um..." Hearing this, Xin Bi lowered her head, holding on to the corner of her clothes, and said with some embarrassment.
Of course Yang Yu understands what Xin Bin means, but this is different from what she said when she came here! Didn’t you just say before you come that you can just bring yourself here and find a place to settle down?
But now, the first step was to meet the other person's parents, and now he had to be dragged to meet his grandfather, that is, to meet the city lord. Yang Yu was even more afraid. After meeting the city lord, the marriage was finalized.
"Well, I'll go with you." Yang Yu didn't refuse and agreed directly. After all, although Hou Qian and Qi Xiaoyun were Xin Bin's parents, they were not the city lords of Alchemy City after all, and they didn't seem to have such a strong say.
Yang Yu planned to make things clear immediately after meeting Hou Kaixun.
Seeing that Yang Yu agreed so happily, Xin Bin couldn't help but feel a little happy on her face, and then the six of them accompanied Yang Yu and walked into the interior of the Alchemy City Lord's Mansion.
This city lord's mansion is indeed different. The design and the clothes of the guards and maids are something Yang Yu has never seen before. Moreover, here, even during the day, lights are on in every room, although Yang Yu doesn't know the reason why these lights shine. But this is really luxurious.
Along the way, the group didn't say anything, but Yang Yu saw that the faces of Hou Qian and Qi Xiaoyun were full of sadness.
And the place where the group of people went was not a place like the living room. Yang Yu felt that the place was a bit like a laboratory.
They should have arrived at a gate. Hou Qian, Hou Liang, Hou Ping, Hou Xingling, and Qi Xiaoyun who were all walking together did not leave. They just stood there, waiting for Yang Yu and Xin Bin to move forward.
"Come with me!" After being stunned for a while, Xin Bin grabbed Xin Ling's arm and pulled her over.
This time, he couldn't adjust the sheep feathers. Could it be that Hou Kaixun had three heads and six arms, or could eat people, and frightened several people into looking like this.
After passing through two more doors, the three of them finally stepped into a large room. There was a man with slightly white hair in the room. Yang Yu could only see his back, but his back was very straight and straight, and it didn't look like him at first glance. He looks like an old man.
Although Yang Yu and the others came in, the man still didn't turn his head. He just continued to look at the blue-purple stone in front of him seriously, and he would drop something on it after a while.
Yang Yu didn't know what was dripping on it, but Yang Yu felt obvious restraint on the blue-purple stone. Yang Yu speculated that it should be the part of the forbidden magic stone, and this person who checked so carefully should It was Hou Kaixun, the lord of Alchemy City and Hou Xinbin’s grandfather.
"Well, you are here."
"I didn't expect that boy Wu Shengyou would lose the election. I also expected to get the method to study the forbidden magic stone!" The man did not turn around, but he didn't mention Xin's marriage. He felt that he He cares more about research and the future of the Hou family.
"Grandpa, don't you care about my concubine? Then Wu Shengyou doesn't like me at all, and he even hurt Ling
Son." Sure enough, Xin Bin was still angry, but only she could talk to Hou Kaixun like this.
"I know this. He wants to use me, so why don't I? Come and let me see..." After saying that, Hou Kaixun turned around, but the first second he saw Yang Yu, his face was filled with tears. collapsed.
Yang Yu also saw Hou Kaixun's appearance clearly. This man was really not that old. He looked like he was in his early forties. Except for his hair being a little white, he was healthy in all aspects, even strong.
This Yang Yu knows that after all, Alchemy City's main focus is the research of rare objects, and Alchemy City is closely connected with Yao Ling. The top management of Alchemy City is definitely not short of such medicines for maintaining body and appearance.
But that’s it! But Hou Kaixun kept staring at Yang Yu's face, his expression becoming more and more serious.
"Are you the one who defeated Wu Shengyou, the son-in-law of my Hou family?" After examining her for a while, after Xin Bi pushed her twice, Hou Kaixun asked normally.
"Yes, I defeated Wu Shengyou, but..."
"Tell me, what's your name?" Hou Kaixun continued to ask before Yang Yu could say any words of rejection.
"Well, my name is Qi Xiang, a nobody." This is how Yang Yu knows himself.
"What?"
"Okay, don't say anything. I don't agree with your marriage. I will give you some benefits and then leave my granddaughter." Hou Kaixun was very excited and rejected Yang Yu at once.
Although Yang Yu was puzzled, Yang Yu was still very happy. He didn't even need to explain it clearly, so he ended the hasty marriage.
"City Master Hou, I understand what you mean. I will not pester your granddaughter, but I can't take away your benefits. I am here to participate in the Baijie Knowledge Competition. I will leave when the competition is over." Hou Kaixun's conditions are good. But Yang Yu didn't agree to leave now.
"Huh? Are you showing your integrity? Whatever reputation you want, I, Hou Kaixun, will grant it to you directly." Hou Kaixun really misunderstood, and he actually thought that Yang Yu was going to play hard to get.
Originally Yang Yu wanted to say it nicely, but what! Hou Kaixun's expression was so irritating. He looked like a poor boy who had harmed the eldest lady, and then his parents were mocking him without thinking and using money to settle the situation.
"City Master Hou, I don't want the reputation. If you can give me a water-repelling bead of spiritual skill master level, I will leave now without even bringing my head back." Yes, Yang Yu is indeed not here to ask for it. Ranking, for him, a spiritual master, the title of Alchemy City Wise Man has no real effect at all. He just wants to avoid the water beads. ap.
"You..., Bin'er, Ling'er, you two go out first, Qi Xiang and I will have a good chat." Yang Yu's condition also made Hou Kaixun angry. It seemed that he planned to talk to Yang Yu about something else. , otherwise he would not have sent Xin Bin and Xin Ling away.
But that’s it! Yang Yu has done nothing wrong, has a clear conscience, can survive a hundred battles, and has strength, so there is no need to be afraid of this old man.
