In Zhu's Hall, Ling'er was looking at the store boredly, shaking the inverted bowl in her hand to imitate rolling dice in a gambling house, but after opening it, there were always medicinal materials inside, and it didn't feel like a gambling house.
Tian Xiaofan was grabbing medicine and packing it at the side. He felt full of energy and completely different from Ling'er's lifeless look.
"Boring...boring...so boring."
"Shh!"
"What the hell are you shushing!"
"Ling'er, don't you know that these words are forbidden in the medicine hall?"
"What's the forbidden word? It's just that you'll be busy after you say it. It's not like I haven't experienced it before. I'm still eager to have something to do." Ling'er continued: "Now that the patients have gone to the other side, there are still ours Well, now this sentence is no longer forbidden."
"I really want to go out and play," Ling'er sighed.
"Stop saying such things. If master finds out, you will inevitably be scolded."
"I really miss the time when Sister Sisi and the others would take my place and go out to play!"
"Now, Sister Sisi and the others are busy with business at the Chamber of Commerce and have no time to come back. You'd better give up that idea and just take care of the store with peace of mind."
After the Chamber of Commerce incident, the two sisters Chen Sisi inherited the Fuxi Chamber of Commerce founded by their parents and became the current president and vice president of the Chamber of Commerce, supported by Director Li.
In addition to their status as presidents, the sisters also entered "Xueyue" through their relationship with Supervisor Li and became grassroots personnel.
Director Li once said: "Not only is Xueyue City in chaos now, the internal situation of the organization is also very chaotic. It is completely possible for you to enter the top management with your identity, but for safety reasons, it is safest to enter with a false identity."
The two Chen Sisi sisters had a huge headache just managing the Chamber of Commerce, and with their fake identities, they had no time to come back.
After Tian Xiaofan collected and packed the medicinal materials, he was ready to leave.
"Ling'er, I have to go out for a while. I'd like to ask you to look after the store alone."
Ling'er immediately perked up and asked, "What's going on? Where are you going?"
Tian Xiaofan said: "Grandma Tan's leg cold has gotten worse recently. I'm going to give her some medicine."
"Oh" Ling'er hesitated and leaned on the counter again "Come back early"
Tian Xiaofan came to the door of Grandma Tan's house. The leaky house seemed not to be optimistic. Tian Xiaofan skillfully put his hand into the wall hole and went around to the back of the door to flip the bolt.
When Tian Xiaofan came in, Granny Tan was lying on the bed. Seeing Xiaofan coming, Granny Tan struggled to get up from the bed. Tian Xiaofan immediately pushed Granny Tan back down.
"Grandma Tan, if you have cold legs and it's inconvenient, you'd better not get up now. Lie peacefully in bed and leave the rest to me in advance."
"Oh, Xiaofan troubled you again to come all the way to deliver medicine and take care of my sick mother-in-law."
"Why is this troublesome?" Tian Xiaofan tied the cloth bag with the heat source stone on Granny Tan's leg.
Tian Xiaofan continued: "Anyway, there are no patients in the shop, so I am idle. I might as well come out and take care of you, Granny Tan."
"Isn't it a good thing that there are no patients? It proves that most people in the city are healthy. By the way, does Xiaofan eat candy? There is candy in the cabinet that I bought yesterday. I want to eat something that is not very sweet."
Tian Xiaofan looked at his legs and said, "No, Granny Tan, I haven't finished the candy you gave me before. If I want more, I won't have room to put it. I'd better leave it for Xiaogang to eat."
Tian Xiaofan said: "By the way, Xiaogang went out to buy groceries so early?"
"I don't know where he went to play again. I haven't seen him all morning. He keeps playing every day. It doesn't make people worry at all."
"Xiao Gang likes to play at his age. The festival is coming soon. By the way, Granny Tan, do you want to come to our place to celebrate the festival? It's more lively when there are more people."
Grandma Tan smiled and said, "No, it's okay. It would be too embarrassing for us to go to other people's homes to celebrate the festival."
"Come on, come on, it's more lively when there are more people..."
Granny Tan couldn't resist Tian Xiaofan, so she said, "Okay, okay, I'll think about it."
——————
Chen Sisi rubbed her temples. Reading the documents for a few days gave her a headache. When she saw the number of documents on the table, she really wanted to die.
As the holiday approaches, the Chamber of Commerce receives many orders and documents.
Chen Sisi handles orders from the chamber of commerce, while Chen Sisi handles other matters such as festival venue arrangements, program performance ceremonies, personnel arrangements, etc. There are so many things that I want to vomit.
"The ceremony, the venue, the deal... I can't stand it anymore, sister."
"Be patient and it will pass..."
Originally, these matters other than orders should be handled by the city lord, but more than ten years ago, President Hu started trading with the city lord.
The Chamber of Commerce is responsible for the management and processing of these affairs, but all proceeds except taxes will belong to the Chamber of Commerce.
Every year during the holidays, the Chamber of Commerce’s money grows the fastest, but it is also the most tiring time.
When I think about the fact that President Hu has been doing this kind of thing for more than ten years, and he does it perfectly every time, I really can't help but admire him.
"By the way, we have to receive city lords from other cities. It's so annoying!" Chen Sisi covered her face. She wanted to cry.
The Eastern Region is divided into three kingdoms. The Northern Qin, Western Qi, and Eastern Wu coexist in a delicate balance. Among them, Xueyue City is an affiliated city of Qin State located in the far north.
The festival is approaching, and other city lords close to Xueyue City come to celebrate the festival. It is better to establish diplomatic relations than to celebrate the festival.
The quality of the reception is related to the fate of the two cities. This heavy pressure makes the sisters feel suffocated.

"One more bowl," Xiao Lin said
"Okay okay"
Xiao Lin devoured the food and kept saying: "Oh...oh oh oh...oh..."
"Swallow it in your mouth before you speak."
Xiao Lin kept beating her chest and swallowed hard, saying, "It's been a long time since I've eaten such decent rice. It's so fragrant."
"It's been a long time since I've had anything to eat? What do you usually eat?"
"Hey, don't mention it. My family thinks I'm a lunatic, so no one pays attention to cooking. Usually what I eat is leftovers, and sometimes some clean dried meat."
“That’s really miserable.”
"Do you live here alone?"
"A person in a sense, what's wrong?"
"It's okay, I'm just afraid that you or you might not be able to control your animal nature."
"Are you suffering from paranoia?"
Xiao Lin lay down on the bed very comfortably after eating.
"Acai, blow out the candle, I - I want to sleep..."
Ah Feng sighed and blew out the candle.
If you say you are relaxed, you know how to ask the other person how many people there are to prepare. If you say you are not relaxed, you can fall asleep at someone else's house. Oh, you are drunk.
The wind is blowing outside, and the lights of the city without curfew now occupy the entire night sky. On the black curtain, stars surround the moon like sweet ants, and the cool moonlight speaks in the cool night.
Ah Feng could hear a small sound in front of the door. This sound came from the Xia family, like... like... like the laughter of many people.
I can't help but wonder: "What on earth are the Xia family doing?"
"!"
Ah Feng felt that Xiao Lin's aura was increasing unconsciously in the wooden house.
It seems that my guess is correct, she should be an immortal cultivator, but she is not very good at breath control. Ah Feng thought
At least Xiao Lin's aura didn't matter to Ah Feng, it was still within the acceptable range and would not expose herself.
"!" Someone not far away also noticed this breath.
"The eldest lady's breath is around here, very faint but not far away."
Ah Feng planned to take advantage of the holiday, when there was no curfew, to go shopping and buy something. After taking a few steps, Ah Feng felt someone moving towards him.
In a few seconds, the man was already on the roof of a house. The man in black, less than five feet tall, looked at Ah Feng for a few seconds before rushing towards the wooden house.
"call out!"
A chain rushed towards him, and the black clothes spun in the air to avoid the attack and landed on the ground.
"It's a bad behavior to break into a private house, brother," Yi Zifeng said with a smile.
Heiyi looked around. Next to him was the Xia family compound. There was no curfew and there were many people on the street.
The man in black turned his head to look at the wooden house behind him, and rushed straight to the wooden house without hesitation.
Yi Zifeng continued to swing the chain, and Heiyi lowered his waist to avoid the blow.
The chain hit the wall and continued to ricochet towards Heiyi. Heiyi moved to the right, but was unexpectedly hit in the back by Yi Zifeng with a knee kick.
The black clothes took advantage of the situation and rushed towards the wooden house. Yi Zifeng waved the chain vigorously, preparing to entangle the floating black clothes, but unexpectedly it got entangled in the spear prepared by the black clothes.
Heiyi smiled, and with a strong force, Yi Zifeng was brought over. Yi Zifeng immediately dodged, only to be cut by the dagger prepared by Heiyi, which scratched the skin of his ribs.
"Interesting," Yi Zifeng said, looking at the bleeding wound.
Yi Zifeng is now between Heiyi and the wooden house. Heiyi knows that he must pass him.
This alley does not have restrictions on weapons such as guns, but not many.
The man in black swung his spear and stabbed Yi Zifeng, but Yi Zifeng quickly blocked it with his arm wrapped in chains.
Yi Zifeng could clearly feel the murderous intention under the black clothes this time.
"It seems that we are the same kind of people"
Hei Yi sped up the speed of swinging his spear, and Yi Zifeng just wanted to play, and he could perfectly block the attack every time.
"Your eyes tell me hatred and fear. Like me, you are living with your own secrets."
Black Yi took the opportunity to throw out the rune paper, and the paper immediately exploded and produced a small smoke.
The man in black took advantage of the victory and stabbed at the smoke. Outside the smoke, Yi Zifeng stretched out his hand and held the handle of the gun.
"Aren't we the same kind of people?"
Yi Zifeng hit it with a palm, and the arrogant power raged in the handle of the gun, and the black sleeves exploded directly.
The black man jumped back and ran away dragging his dislocated right hand.
Ah Feng looked at the gun in his hand being thrown casually on the side of the road. He had no intention of chasing after him. He put his hands behind his head and prepared to go back first. He would not go shopping today.
When Ah Feng retracted the chain, the wound on his ribs had already healed
——————
The lights in the hall were high, and the girls wore translucent dresses to serve the guests. The sweet aroma of wine filled every place in the hall, and people held their glasses high in celebration.
"Congratulations to the Lord of Gaoyang City!"
The Lord of Gaoyang City also raised his wine glass and said, "Congratulations to everyone too!"
The Lord of Gaoyang City drank the wine glass and the banquet continued
"How about City Lord Gao? How about this reception banquet held for you?" said the City Lord of Xueyue City.
City Lord Gao laughed: "Satisfied, satisfied, very satisfied. City Lord Xia is interested. When you come to our Gaoyang City, I will hold a bigger and better reception banquet for you."
"Haha, then I'll wait and see."
Xia Lingxue was wearing a blue dress, leaning glumly against the wall, shaking the wine glass in her hand from time to time. It is said that the wine in the wine glass is high-end fruit wine bought from other cities. It is not greasy and very sweet, and you will not get drunk after a few glasses.
If it weren't for the purpose of entertaining the outer city lord, Xia Lingxue wouldn't want to attend this banquet at all.
"Alone, beauty?"
Xia Lingxue sighed. She didn't want to talk to these young men from the outer city at all, so she left with a cold face.
"Interesting." The young master continued to catch up and asked, "Don't leave. At least come and have a drink with me. Are you people in Xueyue City..."
The young master’s wine glass rang, “She doesn’t know how to drink, so I drank this glass of wine for her.”
After the man finished drinking, he poured the wine and said, "By the way, she has a fiancé."
"Ah? Ah! Sorry, sorry, it turns out that the famous flower has an owner, sorry." The young master ran away immediately
Xia Lingxue asked the man with a cold face: "Why are you back, Xia Wencang?"
"Don't I want to come back a few days early to surprise you, my sister?" Xia Wenchang said with a smile, "Why aren't you welcome?"
Xia Wenchang, the eldest son of the Xia family, was sent to the outer city by the city lord to further his studies when he was young. The last time he came back was seven years ago.
"When did you come back?"
"Just a few days ago, I sensed an unusual energy ripple when I came back. Sister, do you have any clues?"
"You, a genius, don't even know about it, and I don't even know about it. However, there is a new person who specializes in destroying people's cultivation recently. It may be related to him."
"Oh." After hearing this, Xia Wenchang thought for a few seconds and said, "I really want to see its strength."
After Xia Wenchang finished drinking, he remembered something and said: "I haven't seen Lingxue for several years, and you have grown so big."
Xia Lingxue said: "Well, you too"
"Is your fiancé here today? I just want to meet my future brother-in-law."
"Sister, someone beat me some time ago and my spine was bent. Now I'm lying at home."
"It's a pity that I didn't interrupt," Xia Wenchang sighed
"Um?"
"nothing"
"Wen Cang!" City Lord Xia's loud voice shouted
"Here!" Xia Wenchang put down his wine glass, quickly arranged himself and walked forward.
Xia Wenchang bowed and said: "Father, the Lord of Gao City"
City Lord Xia said to City Lord Gao: "City Lord Gao, this is my dog Xia Wenchang, who just returned to the city recently."
"I didn't expect that your son is also handsome and handsome. He must have a lot of luck."
Xia Wenchang smiled and said: "Don't dare, don't dare"
"How old is your master? How strong is he?"
Xia Wenchang said: "Going back to City Lord Gao, there are four out of twenty juniors, now at the ninth level of zhenqi, we are about to break through to the golden elixir stage."
After saying that, the hall became quiet, and everyone's eyes focused on Xia Wenchang. Xia Lingxue narrowed her eyes and clenched her hands.
"You can reach such a state at the age of twenty-four. The next generation is to be feared, the next generation is to be feared, haha."
"Fang Hai!" City Lord Gao called to a beautiful woman, "This is my niece Fang Hai. Fang Hai is Xia Wencang, the son of City Lord Xia."
"Hello"
"Hello"
City Lord Gao didn't say anything, but Xia Wenchang also understood and said: "This is Miss Fang's first visit to our Xueyue City."
"Well, it's the first time," Fang Hai said softly.
"I'll take you to see it, how about it?"
"Um"
"Two city lords, I would like to excuse you."
The two city lords laughed: "Haha, go ahead. If you play more, you won't be in a hurry today."
