The winter in Zhengjing is very short. Before six o'clock in the afternoon, the night has slowly opened.
The Third Ring Road of Zhengjing is an area where every inch of land and every inch of gold are intimidating to ordinary people. And even in this area, not all of them are high-end residences like Chen Muzu's house. The buildings that best represent the special features of Zhengjing are the old-looking courtyard houses.
Thanks to Chen Xiong and his outstanding disciples, Chenjiatang has spread far and wide and has become one of the most representative courtyard houses in the area.
It was Chen Mu who was still driving, twisting and turning into the chaotic Zhengjing alley.
"Master, have you brought any gifts?"
Seeing that they were about to reach their destination, Liuli Qinghui suddenly asked.
"What gift?"
"How can you come to visit your elders empty-handed?"
Liuli Qinghui said matter-of-factly, and Chen Mu gave her a meaningful look. The former felt guilty and immediately added: "I heard that this is also the etiquette of the world."
"You are busy enough on weekdays, so don't pay too much attention to these small details. We don't have many rules in our family, especially you. Mu Yun depends on you. Just do whatever makes you feel comfortable getting along with my elders, and we'll take care of the rest. Give me."
"I'm sorry, Master, I can't believe you yet. For example, this time, you forgot to bring a gift."
"You are not my girlfriend, nor are they their junior. Wouldn't bringing gifts cause them to misunderstand?"
"What's the meaning?"
"Generally speaking, when a man and a woman come to visit their parents, bringing gifts is meant to confirm the relationship between the unmarried couple."
Liuli Qinghui was stunned for a moment, then nodded slowly: "I see, I learned."
Chen Mu secretly laughed, do you really believe it? He didn't continue teasing others, and drove the car into Chenjiatang with ease and familiarity.
Chenjiatang is very different from ordinary courtyard houses. The most important feature is that it covers a large area. It is not an exaggeration to call it a mansion. It is more than enough for four or five families to live in it.
When Chen Mu lived in Chenjiatang, he lived in a small courtyard with Chen Tianzhu, and later Chen Yanxi moved in. Nowadays, he and Chen Tianzhu rarely come back to live together, and Chen Yanxi drags Wang Chuyun in just to have company.
Before the car was turned off, a group of Huaguduo who heard the commotion ran out. The children of all the master uncles are all in the Chen Family Hall, and Chen Mu added a few more while he was studying in college. Every time after school, the whole mansion is like a group of demons dancing wildly. All the masters and aunts are fighting around with the demon pestle, but unfortunately they can't be subdued, and they are even given the title of "the fallen flowers and the willows" by the mythical beasts.
This fallen flower is not the other fallen flower. Chen Yanxi explained that their children are the flowers of the empire and will one day bloom beautifully. And their mother has bloomed long ago, and will only slowly wither in the future, so it is a spent flower and a willow.
As far as Chen Mu knew, Xie was the leader of "The Broken Flowers and Willows", and Chen Yanxi was the leader of "The Divine Beast". The two camps were like fire and water, fighting openly and secretly without giving in, and wanted to eliminate each other whenever they had the chance.
"Brother Muzi"
Chen Mu opened the door and got out of the car, and a figure swooped up. You don't need to look at him to know who he is. Except for Chen Yanxi, no one among these children has such a soft body and fiery personality.
"Just being aware of it is enough. I am a family man."
"I am your sister. Are you going to start a war between sister-in-law and sister-in-law? We have a group of people, why are we afraid of her?"
"Wow, sister-in-law, you look good!"
Chen Mu was still in a stalemate with Chen Yanxi, when the other children suddenly exclaimed. The latter took advantage of the situation and looked at it, his expression suddenly changed and he said something was not going well.
"My name is Liuli Qinghui. Just like the young master, you can call me aunt."
Liuli Qinghui is well-known in the financial circles of Zhengjing, but has never appeared in the media, so her popularity among ordinary people is far less than that of Lin Yunxiao. This also caused a group of children to be extremely surprised when they saw her.
"Don't listen to her nonsense. How old is she and she wants to be an elder? She calls her sister."
"One hundred twenty-four years and three months."
Chen Mu: "..."
It turns out she is really my aunt! No, it’s from grandma’s generation.
The hostility in Chen Yanxi's heart was greatly reduced. She let go of Chen Mu and turned to Liuli Qinghui, looking very cute and cute.
"Hello, aunt, my name is Chen Yanxi, and I am Brother Muzi's future wife."
"Future daughter-in-law? Do you have a marriage contract? Have you registered it with the Civil Affairs Bureau? Did you get the young lady's consent?"
Regarding Chen Mu's spouse, Liuli Qinghui only recognized Lin Yunxiao. Anyone who dares to covet her young master is her enemy.
"So strong! This girl is not an enemy with just one move."
The smile on Chen Yanxi's face froze, and she felt like she was being pressed down by an invisible mountain. She couldn't understand why the other party was targeting her even though she was already showing kindness to her like this.
"Tongyanwuji, you have to learn to tell the difference between a joke and a joke."
"Over the years, no one has dared to joke with me, because everyone who joked with me, I will deal with it as the truth."
"Auntie, I was wrong. I won't talk nonsense anymore."
A little girl can bend and stretch. It is said in the military book that if the enemy is strong, it will show its weakness. Chen Yanxi immediately changed her tactics and looked pitiful and aggrieved.
Chen Mu didn't need any innate ability to know that this little goblin was very bad. Not one of the ten words he said was true. It would be strange if he would admit his mistakes.
"According to the analysis of the data I monitored, there is a 93% probability that you are lying. If the probability is more than 50%, I think you are lying."
Chen Yanxi was shocked: Good guy, the probability of lying is accurate to a percentage! This enemy is really too strong!
"Auntie, what's the point of arguing with a child?"
Chen Mu didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and hurriedly pulled Liuli Qinghui away, who had frightened the divine beast.
Liuli Qinghui was still unconvinced and seemed to want to break up with Chen Yanxi before giving up. Although she has never dealt with children, she wants to be successful in business, but she still can't deal with a child who is less than a fraction of her age?
Seeing that Chen Mu brought a gorgeous girl to the door, the aunts and uncles looked at her with profound meaning. He asked all kinds of questions around Liuli Qinghui, intentionally or unintentionally trying to find out her family's household registration.
Liuli Qinghui remained cold and honest, but unlike Chen Yanxi and other children, after she revealed her identity and said she was unwilling to have a physical relationship with Chen Mu, no one bothered her anymore.
Several aunts quietly pulled Chen Mu aside, pointed at their heads and asked him, was there something wrong with Liuli Qinghui? How could he let a stupid girl with no brains manage the fund for him?
Chen Mu explained that Liuli Qinghui was originally a robot and rarely got along with people in private, so his thinking did not change.
The aunts were relieved and reassured Chen Mu that they had such experience and sooner or later Liuli Qinghui would become humane. Chen Mu expressed his belief in this and said that if he had the chance, he would bring Liuli Qinghui over and receive more baptisms from his aunts.
After discussing for a while, Chen Mu brought Liuli Qinghui to all his aunts and announced loudly that this was his sister and that they would be a family from now on. He hoped that all the elders would take good care of her.
Without giving Liuli Qinghui a chance to argue, all the aunts enthusiastically agreed, of course. Seeing the woman's helpless expression, Chen Mu felt relieved. He has been a pure dream interpreter for so many years, and has limited understanding of human nature. However, these aunts are mature and sophisticated, and all of them have extraordinary academic qualifications. It is most suitable to hand over Liuli Qinghui to them.
Soon, the men from Chen Jiatang came back one after another, and Chen Mu was taken away by his fourth uncle. He couldn't help but impart his experience in the system to him, criticized his actions in Mengdu for being too arrogant, and warned him that he must remember a few points in the future. The first is to talk less; the second is to have his own opinions; and the third is to be honest. Don’t be eager for quick success...
After dinner, Chen Xiong asked his disciples to report their recent gains and losses, honors and disgrace, and then left. The third uncle invited all the men to have a drink, and Chen Mu was also left behind. As for a group of women, under the instigation of Chen Tianyou, they went to the mall in great numbers.
I don’t know how much time passed, but the masters and uncles had already fought for three thousand rounds. When someone was about to fall, Yingying Yanyan, who was shopping in the mall, returned. Mrs. Xie hurriedly pulled Chen Mu over and told him apologetically that it was the first time they had seen such a proud and stubborn robot. The road to family affection was long and arduous. They were helpless and let him try the love route.
Chen Mu said that he might as well take a two-pronged approach. He would often bring Liuli Qinghui over in the future, and he would also try to get into the beauty's heart and influence her.
Xie's expression changed greatly, and she said that she must inform her when he comes so that she can be mentally prepared.
Chen Mu found out that Mr.
Mrs. Xie breathed a sigh of relief and said that it was not good for her to live outside on her first day in the house, so he should take her back to her ancestral home.
Chen Mu knew what must have happened while shopping in the mall today, but he didn't ask deeply. He felt that what Xie said was reasonable, so he said goodbye to his elders and took the two girls home.
On the way back, Liuli Qinghui drove. Chen Tianzhu set her car to autonomous driving and got into the back seat without hesitation. Chen Mu observed Liuli Qinghui carefully and couldn't feel any changes in the other party.
"Did you have fun today?"
"Well, it's interesting to get along with my family for the first time. I think most of them are annoying."
"How do you understand whether this is interesting or annoying?"
"Gee, Muzi, it's such a pity that you didn't go. Liuli fought against the two major forces of Chen Family Hall and didn't fall behind. It's so majestic."
"Have it?"
Liuli Qinghui himself didn’t even know about his glorious achievements.
"Why not? Think about it, Yan Xi wants you to buy her a gift, what did you say?"
"I said that I am an elder, and according to secular rules, she should be the one who bought it for me."
"Then what did you say when she bought you a gift?"
"I said she was still young and would not allow her to bring her fiancé to the house."
"Auntie Xie bought you a gift?"
"I reminded her to live a good life with her third uncle and stop thinking about other men."
"Then you gave them gifts."
"I'm sending this for the young lady."
"Yes, each person has a hat, and they are all white."
"Is there any problem? This is what the young master taught me."
"No, it's not me, don't talk nonsense."
Chen Mu could imagine the embarrassment of the scene and quickly denied having anything to do with it. If she was misunderstood, she would be jointly dealt with by the two major forces of the Chen Family Hall.
Chen Tianzhu laughed regardless of his manners. Liuli Qinghui glanced at Chen Mu with a complex expression. She asked herself whether she was acting according to Chen Mu's instructions, but now it seems that she was clearly framed.
"Master, you have betrayed my trust in you. However, I will not be angry with you."
Liuli Qinghui didn't feel angry at being plotted, but was a little relieved. It turned out that the young master was no longer innocent.
