Chapter 34: Only Good Wife (Please Read)

Cai Zhang couldn't help laughing when he saw Lu Chengfeng was so impatient. "Brother, why are you so anxious? Although that woman is the elder's widow, she is just a concubine and has no children."

"I haven't had a good time in the sect these years. Although I have received support from the General Affairs Office, I can only barely get by. I have enough food and clothing, but I can never dream of fine clothes and beautiful clothes."

"It's not like no one in the sect has tried to take advantage of her, but she is the elder's widow after all, so anyone who wants her has to consider their reputation."

"If it was just cheating, it would be fine. But if it was about marrying her, even as a concubine, no one would be willing, for fear that it would affect their future in the sect."

At this point, Cai Zhang's tone became slightly solemn, "Big Brother, you have a genius in swordsmanship. At the age of twenty, you have already cultivated your swordsmanship to more than the tenth level. You killed Xue Dulong with one sword, and your name spread throughout Yuncang."

"Junior brother, I am proud of you. Even the deacons in the hall will be polite to me if they know the relationship between you and me."

"Brother, you have a bright future ahead of you. You can have any woman you want. Why bother looking for such an unlucky woman? Even though she is pretty, if you succeed, you will inevitably be tainted with coquettishness. I don't know how many people will point fingers at you behind your back."

"I hope you will think twice about the relationship between these two!"

Lu Chengfeng could tell that the other party's words were truly from the bottom of his heart. Although there was inevitably some selfishness in them, they were indeed for his own good.

It’s a pity that no one understands his own talent. If he wants to make progress at a faster rate than ordinary people, he has to marry this girl.

Although there were widows of other elders from the outer and inner peaks, the strength of the outer peak elders was limited after all. Even if they were married, they would only have a few more martial arts skills and the methods would be a bit complicated.

Secondly, the other inner peaks' unique sword skills are all secrets that are not passed on. If he learns them and is discovered by the sect, wouldn't he be asking for trouble?

Therefore, for Lu Chengfeng, the best choice is the legacy of the inner elder of the Xuanhe lineage. In this way, he can legitimately reveal his progress in the "Xuanhe Thousand Shadows Tongyou Sword Art".

Having made up his mind, he sighed and said shamelessly: "Junior brother, I am ashamed to say that I don't have any other hobbies except for other people's wives. If I can't get them, I can't sleep at night, and practicing swordsmanship is boring."

"If I could marry a wife and give her a taste of her life, I would feel happy and even sword practice would be much more enjoyable."

"As soon as I heard about the elder's widow you mentioned, I was moved and wanted to marry her. Please help me, I will be grateful."

Cai Zhang was speechless when he heard this. He stared with eyes wide open at the handsome, tall, and elegant senior brother in front of him. Although they had been brothers for many years, he had never known that he was such a person?

Lu Chengfeng felt embarrassed when he was looked at like this, but for the sake of improving his martial arts, he could only put on a lustful attitude.

Seeing that Cai Zhang hadn't made any movement for a long time, he couldn't help but dry-cough twice and asked, "Brother, are you in trouble?"

Cai Zhang came back to his senses and quickly shook his head, "No, no, I was just thinking about how to introduce the elder's widow to you, brother."

"The place where the widow of the Inner Peak elder lives is called Houdefang. The families of all the disciples of the Inner Peak who have encountered any accidents are all here."

"Although it is not a forbidden area, outsiders are not allowed to enter or leave at will, in order to prevent people with bad intentions from harming the families of our disciples."

"I have only been in there a few times after I received the mission from the General Affairs Hall."

Lu Chengfeng thought for a moment and said, "This is easy to do. How about I write a letter to her, express my love for her, promise her the position of concubine, and leave a token of love to her to see if she is interested?"

Cai Zhang did not feel abrupt when he heard this. After all, the elder's widow was already thirty-six or thirty-seven years old. She was not an ignorant girl. She had experienced the ups and downs of human nature in the sect for so many years and had a thorough understanding of many things. In front of such a person, you should express your feelings directly, otherwise it may cause misunderstandings. If the other party thinks that you have bad intentions and have other plans, it will be even more troublesome.

"That's fine. Brother, please be sincere in your letters. Don't be frivolous or you will insult others."

"Of course I save these." Lu Chengfeng called the waiter, and soon the waiter who was serving upstairs came running in and asked, "What do you want, my two guests?"

Lu Chengfeng said, "Go get me some writing brushes, ink, paper, and inkstone. If you have envelopes, that would be great. If not, I'll trouble you to run an errand for me. I'll pay you extra money for these things."

As he said that, he took out some small change from his sleeve pouch and handed it over. The waiter took the silver hastily, with a big smile on his face, "Please wait a moment, sir. I'll be right back."

Only about a quarter of an hour later, the waiter came in holding a tray. On the tray were pens, ink, paper and inkstone, which he placed one by one on the table.

"Sir, this is what you wanted. Is there anything else you need?"

Lu Chengfeng took a quick glance and found that the pen, ink, paper and inkstone were just ordinary things, not top quality. However, the important thing was the content of the letter, so there was no need to insist on these external items, so he sent the waiter out.

"Junior brother, do you know the name of that woman?"

Cai Zhang said: "No one knows her specific name, but I heard everyone call her Madam Qiu Tong."

"Qiutong, it's really a good name."

Lu Chengfeng ground the ink himself, and then thought slowly. After a while, he had an idea. He spread out a piece of rice paper, picked up the pen with his right hand and dipped it in ink, and suddenly a line of small seal characters was written on the white paper smoothly.

The writing in this world is called seal script, which is divided into large seal script and small seal script. Large seal script is often used in sacrifices to heaven, inscriptions, plaques, etc., while small seal script is used for daily correspondence and article records.

Lu Chengfeng had made some achievements in both internal and external skills, had a fine control over his strength, and his calligraphy was naturally good. There was even a sense of passion and freedom in his handwriting, which made it obvious at a glance that the owner was a young man.

After writing a full article, Lu Chengfeng stopped writing. After the ink dried, he carefully folded the letter and put it into the envelope.

The waiter was considerate and even prepared a mud seal. Lu Chengfeng sealed it with his own fingerprint. After thinking for a while, he took out a sword tassel with a jade buckle from the hilt of his sword and gave it to Cai Zhang.

"Junior brother, I'll leave this matter to you." Lu Chengfeng said solemnly: "Ms. Qiu Tong, if you have any questions, or if you want to find out about me, just tell me the truth and don't hide anything."

"It would be even better if I had the chance to meet her and express my love to her in person."

Cai Zhang saw that he was so anxious, yet took it so seriously. He sighed inwardly, but he could do nothing but take the envelope and the sword tassel. "Brother, don't worry. I will take the initiative to accept the errand of Houdefang when I return to the hall. It shouldn't take long for me to get a reply."

"But you shouldn't have too high expectations, brother. If it doesn't work out, that's normal. After all, she's the elder's widow, and she will have many concerns."

Lu Chengfeng only said: "Please do your best, brother. If the lady refuses, please let me meet her. I will be grateful to you."

"It's true that even a hero can't resist the temptation of a beautiful woman!" Cai Zhang sighed, bowed and said goodbye, "Brother, don't worry, I will take care of this matter."
