Su Bixin's maternal ancestral surname is Wang, who is considered a wealthy family in Lincheng. At that time, the youngest daughter of the Wang family fell in love with the head of the Su family, and because the two families were barely matched, the marriage went very smoothly. The youngest daughter of the Wang family also Married to the head of the Su family. After the marriage, the two had a deep love for each other. Even if Su Bixin's qualifications were not good enough, it did not affect their relationship. The Wang family and the Su family had always been on good terms. Now that the head of the Su family wanted to reorganize his family, he sent Su Bixin to live with the Wang family for a while.
In addition, it also means seeing a husband for Su Bixin.
In this world of cultivation, if there is no strong person in the clan, no matter how much property there is, it will be taken away by greed. And if a person has poor qualifications and a bleak future in cultivation, it will be difficult for future generations to have people with good qualifications. , there will also be some difficulties in marriage.
Su Bixin only has four spiritual roots. Even if it is used for marriage, it is difficult to marry a truly talented person. Just because that talented person needs a child who is more likely to give birth to a child with good qualifications, then if the woman he marries cannot keep up with him, The qualifications of the children born are often not as good as expected.
The head of the Su family and his wife love their daughter very much. If Su Bixin is allowed to marry anyone at will, if her husband's family treats her badly, won't it ruin his life? Therefore, after the two people discussed it, they decided to marry Su Bixin back to the Wang family. The two families were closely related to each other. The children of the Wang family would treat their cousins with some pity. Because of the good relationship between the two families, even if Su Bixin later gave birth. Even if her children are not qualified enough, the Wang family will not neglect Su Bixin.
Therefore, if Su Bixin could fall in love with a descendant of the Wang family, it would be a pretty good marriage.
It is a pity that Su Bixin developed admiration for this young man because of Ye Shu's life-saving grace, which made the two personal guards, Old Wei and Wei Sen, very worried, fearing that the family master and his wife would be betrayed, and even more worried that they would be betrayed. This matter affected the relationship between the two families.
At this time, they arrived at Lincheng and the carriage was heading towards the palace. Wei Sen was even more worried and couldn't help but glance at Old Wei: "Uncle..."
Old Wei waved his hand and told him not to say anything.
Weisen sighed.
When he arrived in front of the palace, Zhu Yao got off his horse and said to Old Wei: "Now that the people have arrived, it's time for us to leave."
Old Wei felt relieved and handed a bag directly to Zhu Yao: "This is the remaining spirit coins. You can count them."
Zhu Yao took it over and weighed it for a moment. Knowing that the number was quite large, he smiled and said: "Just right, I'll take my leave soon..."
Before he finished speaking, a gentle female voice came from the carriage: "You have come all the way, why don't you stay in the house for a few days and let me entertain you to thank you for taking care of you for many days?"
Old Wei's figure froze.
This is terrible. Do we still need to take people to the palace?
Normally, there would be nothing wrong with making more friends with the disciples of the sect, but now that the young lady brought it up, it was clearly not for the purpose of making friends with the disciples of the sect, but...
Since Su Bixin and Ye Shu had no contact with each other in the past few days, Zhu Yao and other male cultivators did not know what Su Bixin was thinking. However, Xia Yuqing already understood a little bit after hearing this. But she also saw that Luohua was ruthless on purpose. Because of Yan Changlan, Xia Yuqing could not let Ye Shu get into trouble.
So, Xia Yuqing gently pulled Zhu Yao.
Zhu Yao and Xia Yuqing still had a tacit understanding. After hearing her secret move, he declined politely: "We have been out for a few days, and some of our fellow disciples are also going to supply supplies, so I won't bother you too much."
When Lao Wei heard his rejection, he felt relieved.
Wei Sen hurriedly paid attention to the movement in the carriage, and was slightly relieved when he noticed that his young lady had not spoken again.
Afterwards, Zhu Yao and the other six people rode away.
Before leaving, Ye Shu always walked side by side with Yan Changlan and never looked back.
When their figures disappeared, Lao Wei and Wei Sen discovered that there was a layer of cold sweat on their backs.
This is very good. In the future, if the young lady spends more time with the princes of the royal family in the palace, she will definitely be able to forget about her girlish thoughts.
inside the carriage.
Xiao Xing looked at her young lady with worry in her eyes.
Su Bixin smiled bitterly: "Xiao Xing, it doesn't have to be like this."
Xiao Xing whispered: "Miss, don't be sad, maybe, maybe..." She wanted to say that Mr. Ye was "too young", but she never said it seriously, otherwise, she would be moved by Mr. Ye. Who has become of the young lady?
Su Bixin quickly calmed down and comforted Xiao Xing: "Don't be like this, it's just fate. Mr. Ye has such cultivation at a young age, and his qualifications must be good. How can I be worthy of him?" ?”
Xiao Xing frowned: "How can the young lady not be worthy of him? The young lady is obviously so good."
Su Bixin shook her head: "Regardless of my qualifications, he didn't even look at me. He just regarded me as an ordinary passerby. I have some feelings for him...but I don't have the shame to pester him."
She also felt a little bitter in her heart. She had already used up all her courage to approach him proactively and to stay in the carriage, but she couldn't do any more. She has to take care of her own face and the face of her family.
Xiaoxing was speechless.
This, she also saw it.
That Mr. Ye, apart from having a close friendship with Mr. Yan, was average to several other sect disciples, let alone them.
However, it was rare for the young lady to be tempted, and she was still aggrieved by the young lady.
Su Bixin sighed: "I have tried my best to fight for myself along the way, but since the other party has no intention, that's it. My father and mother have thought a lot about me, and my cousin from the Wang family may not be bad either. I will put these thoughts aside, I can't say Whichever cousin I can join hands with will also reassure my parents.”
Xiao Xing listened and gradually felt that it was very reasonable, so she nodded: "It's okay, Miss, if you think so."
Su Bixin smiled slightly.
She still had a bitter feeling in her heart, but as she said before, what should be let go would eventually have to be let go.
It's just a momentary heartbeat that seems like an illusion, that's enough.

Zhu Yao and others rode away from the vicinity of the palace and started talking.
Ruan Hongyi said excitedly: "This is my first time in the city, let's go shopping?"
Xia Yuqing has always doted on Ruan Hongyi. When she heard what she said, she smiled and said, "That's fine. What do you think, Senior Brother Zhu?"
Zhu Yao nodded.
Ge Yuanfeng's face fell, but he didn't dare to say no.
Yan Changlan looked at Ye Shu.
Ye Shu said: "It's better to go to the floating market and take a look."
Ruan Hongyi heard this and asked curiously: "Floating market?"
Ye Shu said: "There are many stalls there, specializing in selling the gains from experience."
With just this sentence, everyone almost understood.
Ge Yuanfeng was very interested: "It's the kind of thing that sometimes even the stall owner can't recognize. The person who buys it either makes a lot of money or loses a lot?"
Ye Shu nodded.
Ruan Hongyi also became more interested: "If this is the case, it will be much more interesting than the ordinary market."
Seeing that several people were saying this, Zhu Yao waved his hand: "Then go to the market!"
Yan Changlan's horse moved closer to Ye Shu and asked in a low voice: "Ah Zhuo wants to go shopping. Is there anything that..." brings evil spirits?
Ye Shu nodded slightly: "After shopping, go to the largest trading house in Lincheng."
Yan Changlan said: "That's fine."
So, everyone asked for directions and quickly headed towards the floating market.
The so-called floating market means floating and uncertain. It exists in many cities and does not necessarily appear at a fixed time.
However, there is indeed one in Lincheng, which is still open today.
After inquiring about the route, the group quickly arrived outside Nafu City.
The floating market in Lincheng is located on a shallow beach, with a large river behind it. The floating market has just opened at this time, and all the stall owners are here, but there are not many customers coming in and out.
After a few people entered the floating market, they immediately saw hundreds of stalls, some large and some small, filled with all kinds of things. They couldn't take a look at them at a glance.
Ruan Hongyi looked at a few stalls and felt that there were a lot of things she didn't recognize. Her interest suddenly increased, and she pulled Ge Yuanfeng and headed towards a stall excitedly. Xia Yuqing and Zhu Yao saw it from behind and felt helpless.
Yan Changlan said: "Senior Brother and Second Senior Sister, A Zhuo and I will take a look over there."
Zhu Yao said gently: "Go, if you need anything, you can come find me and your senior sister."
Yan Changlan smiled and said, "Thank you, Senior Brother."
After finishing speaking, the four people divided into two sides.
Yan Changlan and Ye Shu went to the stalls on the left: "Azhuo, let's take a look?"
Ye Shu said: "If you don't know me, you can ask me first. If there is anything good, we can get it together."
Yan Changlan understood what he meant and agreed: "I will definitely cooperate with Ah Zhuo."
Soon, the two of them walked to the first stall first.
Yan Changlan's eyes quickly swept across the top. Among these things, there were dried things similar to medicinal materials, stones and iron pieces with some mysterious pictures and texts, old bamboo slips and booklets, some that seemed to be talismans and some that seemed to be talismans. Waste paper things.
Indeed, many are unrecognizable.
Ye Shu looked through them all and picked them carefully.
He could tell that there were a lot of junk in this stall, but there were one or two items that were really very old, perhaps very old, and even he couldn't tell how old they were.
But despite this, he still focused on holding those two things in his hands and inspecting them. He recognized them for a while before shaking his head and putting them down.
Seeing that Ye Shu was choosing carefully, the stall owner originally thought that he was going to choose something to take away. He was thinking about how to squeeze out more money. Unexpectedly, Ye Shu seemed to be disappointed and wanted to leave after watching this time?
He quickly took a look at their appearance and clothing, and saw that they showed no signs of embarrassment. Although their clothes were not ostentatious, they were very appropriate. He immediately understood that the two of them might be well-known and wealthy. After a moment of hesitation, he said: "You two But you don’t care about these?”
Ye Shu said directly: "Most of them are useless. Although these two are interesting, they are useless to me."
The stall owner was embarrassed for a moment when he heard what Ye Shu said.
Naturally, he knows his own things best. The only two things he picked out were dug out from an ancient cave during his previous experience. The rest are all... This man's eyesight is really good. sharp.
After the stall owner laughed twice, he took out a handful of things from the storage bag and piled them on the ground: "These are also what I have gained through experience and practice. Fellow Taoist, why don't you like them?"
Ye Shu looked over.
This time the stall owner did not cheat, the things were really very old, so he looked at them one by one again.
Afterwards, Ye Shu picked out a stack of palm-sized silk that resembled leaves: "How to sell it?"
The stall owner held out five fingers: "Five hundred gold."
Ye Shu put the things down directly and turned to leave.
The stall owner quickly took back two fingers: "Otherwise, this number? If it's less, I'll lose money."
Yan Changlan grabbed Ye Shu and persuaded him: "Ah Zhuo, such a pile of rags is not worth it. You and I should go shopping elsewhere."
Ye Shu seemed to be convinced by him, his expression became even calmer, as if he was no longer interested in the silk.
The stall owner gritted his teeth and said, "Here, I went on a trip. It cost a lot of money and went through many dangers. If you two are willing to pay this amount..." He raised a finger.
Yan Changlan said: "Ten taels of gold, if you sell it, sell it. If you don't sell it, I'll leave."
The stall owner's expression changed.
Ye Shu had turned around and walked a few steps away.
Yan Changlan hurriedly wanted to pursue him, but the stall owner immediately said: "Hey, don't leave, it's business!"
After hearing this, Yan Changlan casually took out ten gold leaves and threw them to the stall owner. He took the silk and rushed to Ye Shu's side.
Ye Shu nodded slightly towards him.
Yan Changlan also smiled happily.
