Chapter 13 The Person Chuci Fears Most

"Boom bang..."

Early in the morning, Chu Ci, who was cooking and decocting medicine, heard heavy knocks on the door and a loud voice that sounded like a death sentence:

"Xiao Ci, Xiao Ci!"

"Ugh!"

Hearing this familiar voice, Chu Ci wiped his face with a look of despair, then stood up and opened the door.

When the woman at the door saw the door open, she rushed in without any courtesy.

"Xiao Ci, is my girl here with you? This damn girl didn't even go home last night."

As the woman spoke, she ran to the farm tools and started picking and choosing.

"Li Liu is not here with me."

This woman was Li Liu's mother. She was the person who had given Chu Ci the most headaches in Lizhu Cave Heaven in the past two years. He would rather face Old Yang than this woman.

"Where did you go, damn girl?"

When the woman heard this, her face turned a little disappointed.

Why did she come here so early in the morning? Just to catch the adulterer.

Bah, I hit you right in the face.

By then, even if Chu Ci doesn't want to marry her daughter, he will have to marry her!

"Xiao Ci, your shop is a mess. You can't handle it by yourself, right? If my girl were to take care of the household, wouldn't it be much easier for you? You grew up together, so you should know my girl's abilities.

You are much better than the girl in the Ruan family who only eats and eats. Besides, that lazy Ruan doesn't like you. I am different from my family. I have chosen you as my son-in-law since I was young."

The woman started talking non-stop and showed no signs of stopping.

Chu Ci could only interrupt with a frown on his face:
"Aunt, I will consider what you said. You should go back soon. Maybe Li Liu is already home."

"You're just trying to be perfunctory, Auntie. You've been thinking about it for two years. The guy next door is the same age as you, and his child has already been weaned!"

The woman was obviously not satisfied with Chu Ci's answer, but before she could say anything more, Chu Ci had already picked up a hammer beside the stove and started smashing with a piece of iron.

"Okay, okay, auntie won't bother you anymore!"

The woman was also afraid of provoking Chu Ci to rebel, and losing this wealthy husband, so she had no choice but to leave.

“It’s clean now!”

The man left, and Chu Ci also dropped the hammer.

"she?"

Ning Yao, who was obviously also disturbed, walked out from behind the curtain and motioned Chu Ci to look at the woman's hand.

I came with nothing in my hands, but left with a full load!

The main thing is that I didn’t see the woman give any money.

This made Ning Yao understand that the woman was not looking for someone in a real way, but was here to "take things"!
"Don't worry about her, someone will pay later."

Over the years, not to mention Chu Ci, even the gatekeeper Dian Di Jian knew what kind of person this woman was, and he had to "take" something back wherever he went.

However, Chu Ci didn't know what would happen if the woman "took" other people's things. Anyway, after taking his things home, Li Liu would come to his house to deliver the money. So sometimes, Ruan Xiu said that Li Liu was treacherous, just to have an excuse to come to Chu Ci openly.

"Oh!"

Ning Yao, who had just arrived, knew that he didn't understand the situation, so he didn't say anything. He just quietly put the farm tools that the woman had messed up into order.

“Brother Chu, Brother Chu!”

After the woman, Xiaoxiang also woke up from sleep. Liu Xianyang ran in with a bamboo basket on his back and said to Chu Ci:
"Brother Chu, Ping An said he has something to do today and has no time to touch the stones, so he asked me to ask for leave from you."

Chu Ci's daily task for the two was to pick up stones from the stream.

That stream was where the blood of a real dragon was spilled during a dragon-slaying battle three thousand years ago. Therefore, the stones that were stained with that blood became real treasures.

"asked for leave?"

After hearing Chen Ping'an asked for leave, Chu Ci understood something, but with Qi Jingchun watching over Chen Ping'an, he thought nothing would happen.

Therefore, Chu Ci did not take it to heart and said to Liu Xianyang:
"Got it. Also, when you come back today, help me catch a few fish. I'll pay you extra."

The fish raised in the stream stained with dragon blood will be of some help to Ning Yao in healing his injuries.

"No need, I'll take care of it. See you later!"

Liu Xianyang waved his hand and ran towards the stream.

"Let's eat first!"

Chu Ci called out to Ning Yao.

"Ok!"

Ning Yao clapped his hands after cleaning up. At this time, looking at the blacksmith shop, Ning Yao thought of his own affairs.

Since Chu Ci runs a blacksmith shop, isn't he the best person to ask?

So he asked:
"Chu Ci, you run a blacksmith shop. Have you ever heard of a blacksmith named Ruan Qiong in the town?"

Ruan Qiong is the best swordsmith in Aquarius State. Ning Yao's purpose of this trip is to find Ruan Qiong to forge swords.

"He is my master, of course he knows."

Chu Ci had no intention of hiding his identity, of course he knew why Ning Yao came.

"No wonder!"

Ning Yao looked at the Dian Di Sword. No wonder Chu Ci had such a high-quality sword. Since he was Ruan Qiong's apprentice, it was not surprising.

"Can you tell me where your master is? I want him to forge a sword for me!"

"I'll take it over myself after dinner."

It’s not easy to ask the master to forge a sword. Now the plot has changed because of me, so it’s better for me to take Ning Yao with me.

"Thank you!"

Ning Yao was extremely grateful. She had naturally heard about how difficult it was to find Ruan Qiong to forge the sword. With Chu Ci, Ruan Qiong's apprentice, leading the way, things should be easier.

But the two of them don’t know yet whether Ruan Qiong is in the mood to forge swords now!
