She's going to be a sect boss
Chapter 88 The Xia Family
Chapter 88 The Xia Family
He Miao glanced at his mouth and ignored it.
Old man Xu made fun of himself, but he still came up and said in a low voice: "Just now, the imperial envoy is asking Wu Jingqian about your whereabouts."
After all, a happy smile appeared on his face.
He Miao glanced at him coldly, and said, "Will you go? If you don't want to go, I'll go first."
After all, turn around and leave.
What other people think is none of her business.The avenue has no boundaries, He Miao always remembers the path he wants to take.
Old man Xu hurriedly chased after him.
It is the first day of the first lunar month, and the streets are full of laughing crowds.
The two hid themselves in the crowd and hurriedly left Lin'an Mansion.
"Enter my lovesickness door, and know my lovesickness."
Knowing that He Miao had already left early in the morning, Zhu Feiqing raised her eyes and looked into the distance, chanting silently in her heart.
After leaving Lin'an Mansion, old man Xu headed north all the way.
He Miao always thought that old man Xu was wandering around, but now it seems that he has a definite destination.Could it be that he was going to find the master named Qian that he said before.
He Miao retreated now.
She followed old man Xu to learn skills, and she didn't care about the grievances and grievances in the world.
If she had no other choice, she would not even get involved in human affairs.
With such thoughts in mind, He Miao has been hesitating how to confront old man Xu.
On the way, He Miao deliberately claimed that he had no money.As a result, the two of them couldn't even pay the copper coins to cross the river.
Old man Xu didn't doubt it either, he just set up a stall on the spot.
Helping people read palms and measure horoscopes, he does everything, and he is quite accurate.In just three days, he was already a little famous in this place called Tongxiang, and he also had some money in his hand.
"Master, do you help people deal with problems?"
A man in a long robe who looked like a scholar bent down and asked.
Old man Xu glanced at this person, quickly closed the stall and said, "I can solve any problem."
A pair of confident appearance.
The two followed the man, listening to the man's self-introduction, that he was the accountant of the local Xia Yuan's family.
Having arrived at the gate of Xia Yuan's foreign house, old man Xu stroked his sparse beard and asked:
"Which aspect is the problem?"
He Miao unconsciously rolled his eyes behind him, why did he go so early.
The accountant was taken aback, and licked his lips nervously, as if he didn't know what to say.
After a while, he said: "You will know when you go in."
Xia Yuanwai was an ordinary middle-aged man with a fat body and gray temples.There are only two bags under the eyes on the face, which are a bit too big, and it seems that he hasn't slept well for a long time.
He is quite enthusiastic about people and has no pretensions.
However, when old man Xu asked what the problem was, the expression that appeared on the accountant just now reappeared.
"If you don't talk about the problem, I can't solve it."
Old man Xu said calmly.
Seeing this, member Xia squeezed out a sentence: "The house doesn't seem to be very clean."
Old man Xu understands that if it is not clean, then there are other things.
At that moment, he stroked his beard with a smile, and did not forget to offer Xia Yuanwai a price:
"If we are in this business, we will pay ten taels of silver in advance, and if the matter is resolved, we will pay the remaining twelve taels."
He Miao had never heard of this rule, but Xia Yuanwai didn't object when he saw it, and instructed the cashier to get the money.
"Come on, let's eat first."
Member Xia greeted him.
When he arrived at the dinner table, He Miao realized that there was an extra girl beside the table.
The girl was wearing a beautiful short red jacket, which was a bit festive for the New Year.On the head is a double bun and a white jade hairpin, which looks like a high-quality goods.
Coupled with a pair of chubby round faces, innocent and cute.
The girl was about the same age as He Miao. When she saw He Miao, she greeted him warmly and introduced herself as "Xia Menghan".
"He Qing."
He Miao is not used to being too enthusiastic with people, so she only speaks calmly and authentically.
Xia Menghan didn't care, she happily sat beside He Miao, and asked where He Miao came from, what was his background, and where were his parents?
He Miao was not used to being questioned like this, and was also afraid that he would make up some mistakes, so he could only chat indifferently.
"Meng Han!"
Member Xia glared at his daughter and scolded angrily.
Xia Menghan seemed to be very afraid of her father, so she hurriedly shut her mouth.
Only then did Xia Yuanwai explain to everyone with a smile:
"I'm just this precious daughter. Since her mother passed away, it's just me and me, living together for life."
Ever since her father scolded her, Xia Menghan stopped talking, but when eating, she intentionally or unintentionally knocked on the bowl with chopsticks and made some noises, as if to express her protest.
He Miao didn't care either, it's the same for spoiled little girls.
After the meal, Old Man Xu walked around the house to check for any abnormalities.
He Miao secretly turned on his compass, wanting to see if there were spiritual fluctuations in the house.
"He Qing, how many years have you been studying art?"
Xia Menghan's tone was familiar, and she came up to her and asked.
He Miao put away the compass and said nothing.Because Xia Menghan's next sentence scared her.
"Can I worship you as my teacher?"
"Don't don't~"
He Miao was startled, and waved his hands again and again.She is full of calculations, and it has only been a few years since she stepped into the road of cultivating immortals. How can a rookie who can't do better dare to discuss the issue of apprenticeship.
"why?"
Xia Menghan seemed extremely disappointed and asked.
He Miao didn't know what to say, so she just scratched her head and said, "I haven't learned any real skills myself. If you want to learn from a teacher, you might as well go to him."
He Miao pouted and gestured to the old man Xu in front of him.
"do not want!"
Xia Menghan refused resolutely: "I will worship you as my teacher."
Now it was He Miao's turn to have a headache.
"The one in front is much more capable than me. I know very little, so I can't teach you at all."
He Miao shrugged helplessly.
Xia Menghan looked unreasonable, and followed He Miao in everything she said.
"What is the outside world like, can you take me to see it?"
The girl's innocent words hit He Miao a little bit.
After all, she is a woman raised in a boudoir since she was a child. After staying in the greenhouse for a long time, she has become curious about the vast world outside.
He Miao narrowed her eyes, a gust of cold wind blew by, she shook her body, wrapped her coarse clothes tightly, and said lightly:
"It's not as good outside as you think."
For more than a year, since the death of her master, He Miao has been alone, running around, wandering between life and death several times, the world is full of wind and waves, and people's hearts are sinister, she has long been used to it.
Thinking of this, He Miao touched the white jade hairpin on Xia Menghan's head, the jade was moist and pure white, which made He Miao feel warm, and he only comforted him:
"Believe me, there are countless people who would only dream of living the life you have."
What could be a more comfortable life than a wealthy daughter with no worries about food and clothing?This comfortable life that He Miao never dreamed of.
A trace of loneliness flashed in Xia Menghan's eyes, and he asked He Miao a question.
"Outside, is there a lot of evil too?"
"He Qing, come here!"
Before He Miao had time to think about this question, the old man Xu in front had already greeted her loudly.
He Miao quickly ran up with the sword, but didn't notice the loneliness in Xia Menghan's eyes behind him.
