Chapter 1288, Chu Youwei's 'deal'
Lin's front hall.
Lu Feng couldn't help but look a little embarrassed as he looked at the many mahogany boxes stacked on both sides, with huge happy words posted on them.
Due to Lin Wanxia's coercion, she temporarily agreed to use the marriage to sneak into the Chu family's request to retrieve the key. But when it came to this step, she couldn't help but feel uneasy.
And when he saw that the boxes contained combs, rulers, wishful scales, mirrors, dowels, scissors, abacus and other wedding items that were meant to be a betrothal gift, his face couldn't help but darken.
This is not the dowry of the daughter of the Chu family. It is clearly a betrothal gift for him to come and marry.
Looking at the elders of the Lin family, including the head of the family, Lin Bairu, they all looked happy, as if they had agreed to the marriage and complied with the Chu family's request to turn the marriage into a marriage.
Lin Xiaowan realized it later and asked Chu Youren, "Is this what your Chu family means, or is it Sister Weiwei's?"
Chu Youren chuckled disdainfully: "What the Chu family means is what she means."
While Chu Youren was speaking, he looked around Lu Feng. After Guiling disappeared, his face began to look less kind than before.
"Where's your friend?"
Lu Feng replied after some thought: "She has returned to the valley to recuperate."
Chu Youren's face darkened, and he understood what Lu Feng meant by "in the valley". He seemed to have returned to the Qiongling Mountains where the Six Monsters of Qiongling, the Demonic Mountain Yama, were located.
In this case, it will be difficult to find her again.
"Then will she come looking for you again?"
Chu Youren asked seriously.
Lu Feng was a little dissatisfied with Chu Youren's gesture, and replied with a cold face: "Whether she will come or not seems to have nothing to do with Mr. Chu."
Chu Youren was dissatisfied, so he simply put aside his high-sounding hypocrisy and said bluntly: "Uncle said, if you want to join Chu's family, you need to ask your senior to accompany you on the day you return the gift."
Lu Feng said unhappily: "What if he doesn't come?"
"Not coming?" Chu Youren snorted coldly, "Then wait until he comes before mentioning your marriage to my sister."
"You Chu family, please don't go too far!" Lu Feng was angry, and his cold and stern breath went straight towards Chu Youren.
Chu Youren was frightened and fell several steps. Thanks to his side guards, he stabilized his body.
"You actually broke through to the middle stage of the Earth Soul Realm!?"
Chu Youren's eyes were full of disbelief, and he secretly checked with the guard beside him to make sure that his perception was not wrong.
In the hall, Lin Wuhu, Lin Xiaowan and others were also shocked for a moment. Feeling the real and rich yin and yang energy emitted by Lu Feng, they all looked excited and happy.
Lu Feng calmed down and said frankly: "I was lucky enough to encounter some opportunities in Sword Ruins."
The display of such aura was naturally intentional on his part.
If not, how could his character be so easily influenced by the words of people like Chu Youren? It was just an excuse to use the topic.
After all, Lin Liyunruo has always been in the Five Elements Realm, which is somewhat hindering him in many situations.
And under the operation of the Turtle Breath Dragon Secret Technique, Lu Feng also knew that no one would easily see the flaw.
At least, the guardian at the Heavenly Soul Realm beside Chu Youren is a good example. He firmly believes in this false yin and yang that is forged and bluffing.
Chu Youren was shocked and couldn't help but said jealously: "I didn't expect you to have such good luck!"
While thinking about it, Chu Youren's attitude suddenly improved a bit, "Since you have such strength, if your master friend really doesn't want to come, ask him to accept you as his direct disciple, and I can help you talk to your uncle later. It makes sense.”
Lu Feng frowned and said nothing.
Hu~
Outside the house, there was suddenly the sound of a horse neighing and the sound of a chariot stopping.
Everyone looked into the distance together.
"Why are you here?"
Chu Youren looked at Chu Youwei slowly appearing at the door of the house in surprise.
Lu Feng also glanced at her from a distance.
Different from the red wedding dress in the Sword Market, today Chu Youwei put on an elegant and fresh blue and white dress, covered with a cage of light white tulle, and stepped out of the carriage, looking very demure. Simple and elegant, dignified and quiet.
"Uncle called me," Chu Youwei's clear and soft voice came out. She glanced in Lu Feng's direction from a distance. Their eyes met unintentionally, and she averted her eyes as if in panic, showing a bit of her daughter's family. shy attitude.
Chu Youren stepped forward suspiciously, frowned and said, "What's going on? Didn't uncle order me to come here? Why did he call you again? You wouldn't have run over by yourself, would you?"
Chu Youwei took out a small token and said bluntly: "He heard what Aunt Weng said and asked me to call you back."
Chu Youren was shocked. Seeing Weng Qin's unique identity token, he no longer dared to doubt Chu Youwei at all, and said in a low voice: "Then you just ignore your marriage to the Lin family?"
Chu Youwei said: "Uncle said they would make arrangements."
"I really don't know what they think," Chu Youren sighed depressedly.
Lin Xiaowan looked at the two people talking in whispers at the door, and moved over feeling uneasy.
Seeing this, Chu Youwei said, "Go and say goodbye to the Lin family master and the others. I still have something to talk to Xiaowan."
Chu Youren was stunned, "Is this what Aunt Weng meant?"
Chu Youwei nodded vaguely, with a hint of bitterness at the corner of his mouth.
"Sister Weiwei," Lin Xiaowan stepped forward and pulled Chu Youwei, "You are already here, why don't you come in?"
Chu Youwei did not follow Lin Xiaowan and said hesitantly: "I will go back to Lingchu Villa in a few days. Do you want to come with me?"
"Really?" Lin Xiaowan said in surprise: "Are you going back to see the master and the others? Has the master's spiritual porridge been cooked?"
Chu Youwei looked at Lin Xiaowan's bright and innocent smile, and an imperceptible strangeness flashed across her face.
"In addition to visiting the master, didn't the senior sister and the others also invite us that day to come and help? There is also your brother. Didn't you still want to ask him to join the villa at that time?"
"Yes, Senior Sister Xu and the others want us to help the old and bring the new," Lin Xiaowan suddenly thought of the scene when she entered the Sword Market that day, and what Ji Zhi said about her brother's favorite person being at Tianchu Villa. , thinking of using this to help restore memory...
Lin Xiaowan actually felt a little sorry for Chu Youwei.
At the same time, under Lin Xiaowan's unnoticed gaze, Chu Youwei's face also showed a bit of guilt.
…
Return to Chu’s house.
As soon as Chu Youwei entered her small courtyard, she was summoned to the main hall by Chu Xuanhe and Weng Qin.
"How did things go?" Chu Xuanhe's first sentence was about the outcome of Chu Youwei's trip to the Lin family.
Chu Youwei nodded in response: "They agreed to go to Tianchu Villa together."
"Okay," Chu Xuanyi nodded with satisfaction, a rare smile appearing on his face.
Chu Youwei asked again while thinking: "Does the relic left by my father really involve the Lin family's secret treasure of heaven and earth?"
Chu Xuanhe said firmly: "Other than that, I can't think of anything else that would make that group of thieves break into my ancestral temple at night, regardless of risk."
Weng Qin echoed: "Your father has always valued righteousness over life. He had a good relationship with Lin Baixu, the former head of the Lin family. When the Lin family was in chaos at that time, there was no way that Lin Baixu would really hand over the secret treasure that they had guarded for generations. Your father is in charge."
Chu Youwei was doubtful, "Would father really hide something so important in Tianchu Villa?"
Chu Xuanhe said: "Your father didn't have many real friends during his lifetime, only Lin Baixu and Elder Tang from Tianchu Villa."
Weng Qin warned: "When you go to Tianchu Villa, you must keep an eye on the Lin family brothers and sisters. Finding out what the Lin family's secret treasure is is one of the most important things. The most important thing is to use their hands to try to bring the secret treasure storage with them. return."
Chu Youwei bit her lip and said bitterly: "If I bring it back, will you really allow me to be free?"
"Of course!" Chu Xuanhe promised with a sneer: "If you successfully bring back something related to the Lin family's secret treasure, the Chu family will not interfere at all whether you are alive or dead."
Chu Youwei gritted her teeth and nodded, warning and encouraging herself in her heart that she was just the last step away from this environment.
This time when she brought Zi Daihua back, she had already obtained a promise not to force her to give it to Luo Tianfu.
As long as she goes to Tianchu Villa again, she can live the life she wants to live, and she no longer has to worry about it all day long and be at the mercy of others.
In fact, the reason why Chu Youwei agreed to such a 'deal' was mainly because Lin Xiaowan's relationship with the Lin family had been so-so over the years, and Lin Liyun had only just come back and was not well received in the past.
Based on this, the two of them would not care too much about the Lin family's secret treasure, so her guilt for using it would not be too deep.
If it would cause harm to the two of them, she would definitely not want to.
After Chu Youwei returned to her room.
Chu Xuanhe whispered to Weng Qin again.
Chu Xuanhe said with doubts: "Aqin, do you think Xuan Yi really tricked us before he died? Not letting us get the Lin family's secret treasure?"
Weng Qin shook his head: "Normally, he shouldn't be on guard against your elder brother unless he knows that his beloved woman was sent by you."
Chu Xuanhe shook his head: "I don't know. After he found out that the woman had betrayed him, he beat the woman to death with his own hands in a rage. He was so cruel. If he knew that I was sent to lurk beside him, with his ability When you are angry, you must come to me for explanation, instead of being sad and sinking into depression."
Weng Qin said: "I'm afraid only the person at Tianchu Villa knows the specific reason. He decided to commit suicide before his death, but he stayed there for a while and completed the last journey of his life."
Chu Xuanhe thought deeply and said, "Let his daughter get in touch with this matter herself and see if she can bring some value to us in the end."
Weng Qin asked: "If she really brings back something related to the secret treasure, do we really want to let her go? Do we want to make it public that she has nothing to do with the Chu family anymore?"
Chu Xuanhe smiled coldly, "The second young master of the Luo family was interested in her, and the boy from the Lin family was watching her. She wants to leave so easily. Even if we allow it, they will not let her go."
There was also a hint of coldness on the corner of Weng Qin's mouth, "I underestimated that boy from the Lin family before, but I didn't expect that he was actually capable of helping to find Zi Daihua, and he also improved so much in strength."
Chu Xuanhe said meaningfully: "No matter how strong he is compared to the Lin family, he can't make any waves. If there weren't people like the Six Monsters of Qiongling behind him, I wouldn't ask Youren to lower his status and come to visit."
