I sell demon meat in the city

Chapter 307 Extra Chapter 9: Dongfang Shuo
"Su Changhe, tell me honestly, when you first met Lu Xingyun and my granddaughter, did you already foresee that they would end up together?"

Although the die was cast, and Lin Yan himself wasn't particularly dissatisfied with Lu Xiaowu, he was still unhappy that his prized possession had been snatched away so quickly.

"I'm only skilled in divination, not the God of Love. How could I possibly know about their relationship?"

Even if I knew, I couldn't tell you. After all, Xiao Qi was still young then. If he really told you, everyone here would call Xiao Wu a beast.

Lin Yan glared at him, not quite believing him. "I don't believe you know nothing about this. I've been playing chess with you every day for nothing."

How did this get connected to playing chess?

Su Changhe was speechless.

He craned his neck to look at the little boy surrounded by the crowd and laughed, "Isn't this child adorable? Don't you want him to call you great-grandfather?"

Lin Yan:
How could I not want to?
Lin Yan looked enviously at Meng Jiu, who was holding the child; he had to be the first great-grandfather.

People kept coming to Meng Shulan's courtyard, making it very lively.

Dongfang Shuo looked at Xiao Qi, who was squatting at the kitchen door, holding a large bowl and eating fried radish balls with relish, and Lu Xiaowu, who was squatting with her. He turned around and walked out with a dejected expression.

Meng Ziyang grabbed a handful of meatballs from Xiao Qi's bowl and then followed Dongfang Shuo out of the courtyard.

"Sigh, I've been wary of you for so many years, but I never expected that my aunt would end up in someone else's bowl."

Because of the special connection between Lu Xiaowu and Xiao Qi, coupled with Lu Xiaowu's cultivation level and the fact that he saved her when she was young, Meng Ziyang always felt that the guy was an elder standing at a higher level.

Although he seemed to be her fellow disciple, he was still an elder whom she could only look up to from afar, so she never imagined that he would harm her.

How abominable!

"Actually, they are a good match."

Despite his dejection, Dongfang Shuo had long since come to terms with it.

Putting aside Xiao Qi's cultivation level, only Lu Xingyun could straighten out her personality.

In addition, the two have a special bond and a special destiny, so it seems so natural for them to be together.

"Heh, you've figured it out now?"

Dongfang Shuo smiled wryly, "What can I do if I can't figure it out?"

Five years later.

"Ziqi, do you want to eat at Pizza Hut?"

Lu Ziqi's eyes lit up, and he nodded vigorously, "Yes, Uncle Shuo, are you going to take me?"

"Of course, but you have to promise Uncle Shuo something before you go."

"what's up?"

"Forget everything you just saw, and don't tell anyone?"

"why?"

"Because it's an adult secret, so children can't tell anyone."

Little Lu Ziqi nodded solemnly, "Don't worry, I definitely won't tell anyone."

After having lunch at Pizza Hut, Dongfang Shuo and Lu Ziqi returned to Qingshui Town.

"Mom, I went to eat pizza with Uncle Shuo for lunch."

Did you bring it for me?

"Of course."

Lu Ziqi took the pizza and cola from Dongfang Shuo and placed them on the stone table next to her mother. Watching her mother take a sip of the cola, she excitedly said, "Uncle Shuo came out of Aunt Mulan's room naked this morning. He told me not to tell anyone, so he treated me to Pizza Hut."

"puff!"

Meng Qi suddenly spat out the mouthful of cola she had just taken a sip of.

As Dongfang Shuo turned to leave, he stumbled and nearly fell. He turned back and gritted his teeth, calling out each word clearly, "Lu—Zi—Qi—"

"what happened?"

Lu Ziqi looked at Dongfang Shuo with a puzzled expression, not understanding why his face was so red.

"Uncle Shuo, what's wrong?"

He still had the nerve to ask what was wrong?
Dongfang Shuo walked back in a few steps, grabbed him, and turned to leave.

He threw the food against the wall as they went outside, angrily saying, "You little rascal, what did you promise me? You forgot after you ate it, didn't you?"

“I haven’t forgotten,” Lu Ziqi said blankly, his dark eyes wide open. “You said not to tell anyone, but I didn’t tell anyone. I’m saying it here, in my own home, not outside.”

Dongfang Shuo:
"Pfft! Hahahaha."

Meng Qi couldn't help but burst out laughing, which made Dongfang Shuo's face darken even more. He finally said, "Meng Qi, keep an eye on your son."

Turned around and ran away.

Lu Ziqi scratched his head, puzzled. "Uncle Shuo, what's wrong? You're behaving strangely."

Seeing Dongfang Shuo leave in a huff, Meng Qi gloated and pulled her son back, asking,

"Ziqi, tell your mother why your Uncle Shuo came out of your Aunt Mulan's room so early in the morning?"

Mu Lan is the eldest daughter of the prestigious Mu family in Kyoto, and is one year older than Meng Qi.

Because he was born into a good family and had great talent, he grew up in a smooth and successful life, but he was always dissatisfied with Meng Qi's fame.

Years ago, he longed to spar with Meng Qi in Qingzhou, but he was always stopped by his elders and couldn't even leave the capital.

Last year, taking advantage of my elders' seclusion, I finally seized the opportunity to escape Kyoto and came to Sanqingshan alone.

Xiaoqi was very curious about this.

After all, no one her age had ever challenged her to a fight since she was a child. Not only did she beat up Dongfang Shuo at the special training camp, but she also didn't know how to fight with others properly.

Now.
Xiao Qi specially had someone let Mu Lan in and told her that if she could get within three meters of her within fifteen minutes, she would win.

At first glance, it seems very insulting, and Mu Lan really thought so too. After all, Xiao Qi, who had concealed her aura, made it impossible for people to tell her cultivation level, or they could even believe she was an ordinary person.

But it was precisely because of this that Mu Lan dared not be careless.

When Zhang Jinwu and Dongfang Shuo rushed over, the two were just about to start fighting.

Zhang Jinwu quickly stepped forward to stop her, "Xiao Qi, this girl's grandfather is a good friend of mine, you..."

"Uncle Zhang!"

Before Xiao Qi could speak, Mu Lan angrily shouted, "We're having a fair match, can you please stop causing trouble?"

fair?

"laugh!"

Dongfang Shuo couldn't help but scoff. How do these big families raise their children?

How arrogant! "What are you scoffing about? Who do you think you are?"

Mu Lan wasn't stupid; she could tell from Dongfang Shuo's sneer that he was contemptuous. She immediately raised her eyebrows and glared at him angrily.

Xiao Qi, always eager for drama, pointed at Dongfang Shuo and said to Mu Lan, "This is Dongfang Shuo. He's quite well-known in your capital, right? Why don't you fight him first? If you can't even beat him, or can't withstand three of his moves, do you think you still need to fight me?"

Among the young talents of Qingzhou, Dongfang Shuo is second only to Meng Qi. Others include Meng Ziyang, Wei Xiaole, Qiao Tai, Liu Liu, and later Meng Mingyue.

However, besides that, I heard that there is another person in the Meng family who is even more powerful than Meng Ziyang, Meng Qi's cousin Meng Yanxu.

Qingzhou is full of talented people, which completely overshadows the powerful families in the capital and other places.

"Okay, I'll fight him first."

Mu Lan, who originally intended to spar with Meng Qi, started fighting with Dongfang Shuo without saying a word.

The results speak for themselves.

Dongfang Shuo has no concept of chivalry. If Zhang Jinwu hadn't been watching with a glare, he would have definitely sent her flying with a single talisman in one move.

Honestly, someone so weak has the nerve to challenge others to a duel. He doesn't even have the patience to tease her.

So in just two moves, Mu Lan was lying on the ground unable to move.

"Shuo, you have no sense of propriety at all. Can't you show some mercy to a girl?"

Dongfang Shuo said helplessly, "I did show mercy."

His words were worse than nothing, leaving Mu Lan filled with shame and indignation, wishing she could disappear into the ground.

Only then did she truly understand what her grandfather had always said: "Going to spar with Meng Qi? You're just slapping her face on the ground."

They were practically telling me not to embarrass myself.

Mulan's rebellious phase lasted quite a long time; she's already over twenty and it's still not over.

So after becoming invincible in Kyoto, he never forgot Meng Qi.

现在
Although she lost, she was not convinced, so she decided to stay in Qingshui Town to cultivate and find Dongfang Shuo to fight whenever she had free time.

Dongfang Shuo was extremely annoyed and suggested that she change her target, such as Liu Liu, Qiao Tai, or Xiaole Ge.
If there's trouble, it shouldn't be just him who's troubled; everyone has to be troubled together.

I originally wanted to avoid it, but Mulan gave me too much.

She's rich, and she has people mailing her food, drinks, clothes, and toys all the time.

They even had a wedding dress custom-made for Liu Liu from abroad, because she was about to marry Meng Yanxu.

There was no other way, so everyone could only give her pointers whenever they had time. Gradually, Mu Lan became familiar with everyone here, and even bought a small courtyard right next to Dongfang Shuo's house.

Because they lived nearby, it was only natural that he would seek out Dongfang Shuo for sparring most often.

I just don't know how it ended up on the bed while I was cutting.
The Mu family is one of the eight great families in Kyoto, and Mu Lan is the most outstanding among the younger generation of the family, as well as the eldest granddaughter who is most loved by the family patriarch.

Therefore, Mulan's wedding must be grand and solemn.

Before the wedding, the Sha family, which had fallen to the bottom of society, recalled Sha Yanxue, who had moved abroad.

"No matter what, you are still A-Shuo's biological mother. It's only natural for a mother not to attend her own son's wedding."

Hearing the words of her own elder brother, now the head of the Sha family, Sha Yanxue gave a self-deprecating laugh. "My biological mother? When I was a child, Dongfang Shuo never treated me like his own mother, let alone now? He didn't even inform me of his wedding, so why should I go?"

The main problem is that I'm ashamed.

But Sha Yanxue couldn't say those words, so she could only refuse her older brother in this way.

"Your own son is getting married? Do you need to notify him?"

Chief Sha was exasperated. "Alright, I've had someone prepare a gift for you. All you have to do is bring your nephew and niece to the wedding."

Sha Yanxue frowned, and had to remind her brother, "Have you forgotten that when Dad was still alive, Dongfang Shuo severed ties with the Sha family in front of him?"

"What severance of kinship? Without you, he wouldn't exist. Do you think blood ties can be severed so easily?"

At the same time, the Dongfang family members were desperately trying to call Dongfang Ya, but unfortunately, he had already informed his father, the clan leader, that he was the only one who could attend the wedding; the others could not.

Some people tried every means to find Dongfang Shuo's phone number, but unfortunately, they could not get through even once.

Send a message?
No one knows how Dongfang Shuo managed to do it, but in any case, no one's message was successfully sent.

It's rumored that Meng Qi and several others, including Meng Shulan and Lin Qingquan, will all be present at the wedding.

In a short time, countless people came to the Mu family to beg for wedding invitations.

Unfortunately, the hotel space and the number of guests were fixed, and the Mu family resolutely refused to add any more people.

Since the patriarch of the Mu family could become friends with Zhang Jinwu, their temperaments and personalities must be compatible. In addition, the Mu family is one of the top aristocratic families, so they don't need to form alliances through marriage or befriend anyone else.

So just hire the number of people you need; there's no need to increase the number.

The grand wedding was simply to follow customs and give the granddaughter a dignified wedding.

No one in the Mu family had any complaints about their granddaughter's husband, Dongfang Shuo.

The only one who raised doubts was Mulan's younger brother. He suspected that his brother-in-law had a problem with his choice of partner. What kind of eyes did he have? How could he fall for a tomboy like his sister?

As soon as he said that, he naturally got a beating from Mu Lan.

Now, if she wants to beat someone up, it's really not easy in Qingshui Town, so she can only go back to Kyoto.

On the day of the wedding, many people were stopped outside the hotel, including Sha Yanxue and several of her nephews and nieces.

Coincidentally, at the same time they were stopped, Dongfang Ya got out of the car chatting and laughing with the Mu family patriarch, accompanied by a middle-aged couple with distinguished manners.

Actually, saying they were middle-aged is a bit inappropriate, because the two of them looked to be only in their thirties. The woman was beautiful and graceful, and the man was gentle and refined. They looked incredibly well-matched standing together.

The key point is that Dongfang Ya and the Mu family patriarch were extremely respectful to the two of them, which could be seen from their posture and eyes.

"Who are those two? Could they be Lin Qingquan and Meng Shulan?"

"No, Lin Qingquan grew up in Kyoto. I've met him; that person isn't him."

“That woman isn’t Meng Shulan either; I’ve seen her picture.”

The crowd was buzzing with discussion, and some people were talking about Dongfang Ya, saying that he had now partially broken away from the Dongfang family, that his business was very successful, that he had become related to the Mu family by marriage, and that his son was so accomplished—he was truly a winner in life.

Hearing these words, Sha Yanxue felt a mix of emotions and was extremely uncomfortable.

Her nephew saw Dongfang Ya and was about to ask her to go over and tell them so they could all go inside.

But before he could even touch Sha Yanxue, he saw her squeeze through the crowd and leave.

"Please, both of you, sit here."

As soon as Zhang Jinwu saw Yu Qingge and Su Changhe enter, he quickly invited them to the table next to the main table.

That's right, the elegant couple just now were their two ancestors.

Since the two of them came to join in the fun, Xiao Qi and Lu Xiao Wu were left behind at Sanqing Mountain.
