The most secure job in Dajin

Chapter 157, Hua Dalang's Engagement Banquet

On the morning of October 23, before daybreak, the Hua family was busy in the yard. When the first rays of morning light appeared, a guest arrived.

The people who came were from the Hua family.

After Grandpa Hua became the clan elder, he interacted more frequently with the clan members. Because he was the provider of body refining techniques, and the Hua family was full of cultivators, many members of the Hua clan came over eagerly to surrender to the old man.

The first to arrive were the clansmen who usually gathered around Old Man Hua.

Not long after, several other elders from the same clan as the great elder also arrived, and behind them were their respective descendants.

Seeing the patriarch coming in person, Grandpa Hua didn't dare to act rashly and quickly took his son and grandson out to greet him.

There were quite a lot of Hua family members coming. The front yard of the Hua family was already a bit crowded because of the tables and chairs. Their arrival made the yard even more crowded.

Old Master Hua led several elders into the main hall, accompanied by the three Hua Minghe brothers and three sons-in-law. The young people from the clan stayed in the courtyard and were entertained by Hua Dalang and his younger brothers and sisters.

"Nine Sisters, you don't know these brothers and sisters in the clan yet, I will introduce them to you."

Hua Changxi was brought by Hua Dalang, who introduced the young men of the tribe to her one by one.

After getting to know these tribesmen, another guest arrived.

Hua Hongqi, the eldest son of the prince of the Bo family, came with some young cultivators from the Hua family.

When Hua Dalang saw this, he hurriedly pulled Hua Changxi and other brothers and sisters in the family to greet them with a smile.

"Congratulations, Dalang!"

"Mr. Qi is visiting my humble abode. We are sorry for not welcoming you in person."

Hua Hongqi pretended to be dissatisfied and looked at Hua Dalang: "Dalang, you and I are brothers from the same clan. Stop talking about young master and young master. I am older than you, so you should call each other brothers from now on."

Hua Dalang heard this and didn't hesitate to call out with a smile, "Brother Qi."

Hua Hongqi immediately responded with a smile, and called Hua Dalang "Brother Yi", then shifted his gaze to Hua Changxi who was beside him.

When Hua Dalang saw him, he smiled and introduced him: "Brother Qi, you haven't met my Jiu Niang yet, Jiu Niang, this is Brother Qi from the prince's family."

Hua Changxi nodded towards Hua Hongqi: "Brother Qi."

Hua Hongqi looked at Hua Changxi gently, with a bit of appreciation in his tone: "Nine Mother, I have heard Shu Ran mention you a long time ago, and today I finally met you."

Hua Shuran, who was standing beside him, interrupted with a smile, her tone was somewhat intimate and teasing: "Nine Lady, although you and I are both in the Medical Department, we have only met a few times."

"Ever since you stopped teaching at the Qihuang Hall, Wanyue and I wanted to ask you questions about alchemy and medical skills, but we couldn't find you. We need to get to know each other more often in the future."

Hua Changxi looked at the two legitimate sons and daughters of the prince's family. As the saying goes, one should not hit a smiling person. They showed their intention to get close to her, so she couldn't be too repulsive. She smiled and said, "I am now in charge of the No. 13 Qihuang Hall. If you want to find me in the future, you can go to the No. 13 Qihuang Hall."

Hua Shuran heard this and immediately agreed with a smile.

Hua Wanyue, who was standing next to her, interrupted with a smile, "Nine Lady, I heard that every Qihuang Clinic has eight medicine boys. Have you decided on your medicine boy?"

Hua Changxi looked at her and said, "I'm not too sure about the medicine boy. It may be arranged directly by the Medical Bureau."

Hua Wanyue glanced at Hua Hongqi and Hua Shuran and said with a smile, "You are the owner of the hall now, so you can directly appoint a medicine boy. Jiuniang, we are all sisters from the same clan. Do you think Shuran and I can go to the No. 13 Qihuang Hall to be your medicine boys?"

Taking over the No. 13 Qihuang Hall and being watched by the royal family was already enough to make Hua Changxi upset. If the Hua family members got involved, she was afraid that she would not even want to enter the Qihuang Hall.

"A medicine boy is just an errand boy. You and Shu Ran are being medicine boys. It's a waste of your talents."

Prince Shou and the director are both extremely concerned about the Qihuang Pavilion. In addition, the body-refining technique that Grandpa Hua presented to the clan also has the word Qihuang in it. The Bo family has guessed that the Qihuang body-refining technique that the Hua family obtained was most likely obtained from the Qihuang Pavilion.

Qihuang Hall definitely plays a vital role in the Holy Temple of Dan.

Shou Wang assigned Qihuang Hall, and after knowing that Hua Changxi took over the No. 13 Qihuang Hall, Bo's Mansion wanted to plant someone there. These days, they have been keeping quiet, just wanting to bring up this matter on the day when Hua Dalang was getting engaged.

Hua Wanyue heard the rejection in Hua Changxi's words and was very dissatisfied with her ignorance. Although she was the one who said the words, any discerning person could see that she was speaking on behalf of the Bo Mansion. Rejecting her was equivalent to rejecting the Bo Mansion.

"Nine Lady."

Hua Wanyue wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Hua Hongqi: "Wanyue, Jiu Niang is also thinking about you, don't let her down."

Just at this time, another guest arrived. They were some good friends Hua Dalang made in the Demon-Suppressing Army.

Hua Hongqi changed the subject at the right time and looked at Hua Dalang: "Brother Yi, we should go to pay our respects to Grandpa Bin. You go and greet the guests."

Hua Dalang asked Hua Sanlang to lead Hua Hongqi and his party to the main hall, while he took Hua Changxi to the Demon-Suppressing Army.

Hua Changxi looked at him puzzledly: "Brother, I can understand you taking me to meet the Hua family, but why are you taking me to meet your colleagues?"

Hua Dalang: "I think you don't participate in our family affairs enough, so you don't care about our family. In the future, if there is anything going on at home, you have to go with me to socialize."

Hua Changxi wanted to refute, but she had already reached the door, and Hua Dalang had already introduced her to the Demon Suppression Army. Seeing this, she could only smile and greet. Hua Dalang saw that the courtyard was full of Hua clan members, so he brought the Demon Suppression Army to his room to entertain them. Knowing that it would be difficult for Hua Changxi to follow, he could only tell her: "Nineth Lady, wait until Shu Ran and the others come out of the main hall, and then you go and entertain them."

Hua Changxi watched them enter the house with a smile, but did not follow Hua Dalang's instructions. Instead, he went to the kitchen.

In the kitchen, Yao, Aunt Hua II, Aunt Hua IV, and some neighbors who came to help were busy.

Seeing that there were still many vegetables that had not been washed and cut, Hua Changxi directly used his spiritual power to wash and cut the vegetables, and then helped with some other chores.

"Uncle, someone is coming from the Six Gates."

Hua Changxi heard shouting coming from outside the yard, she stretched her head to look outside, and saw her father walking quickly out of the main room. Soon, he led several constables from the Six Gates into the yard.

"Jiu Niang."

After a while, Hua Changxi was helping to serve the food when Hua Shi'er Niang came in.

"what's up?"

"Several elders in the tribe want to see you. Grandfather asked me to come and call you."

Hua Changxi paused, looked towards the main room, was silent for a moment, put down the dishes in his hand, stepped out of the kitchen and walked towards the main room.

The main room was filled with men. Grandpa Hua and his clansmen were chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere was very harmonious.

After Hua Changxi stepped into the main room, everyone in the room fell silent and looked at her.

Several elders of the Hua family sat on both sides, with solemn expressions and sharp eyes. Although they were smiling, the smile did not reach their eyes, instead, they showed cold majesty.

Behind them stood their descendants.

The only young man sitting in the room was Hua Hongqi from the prince's family.

In an instant, all kinds of gazes, whether sizing, examining, or criticizing, with various unclear meanings fell on Hua Changxi at the same time, making her frown.

Hua Changxi stood in the middle of the main room, looking at Old Man Hua and the elders of the clan as they prepared for a three-court trial. She felt like a sinner waiting to be judged.

The anger was ignited instantly.

The anger was not just a little bit, Hua Changxi even felt a tingling pain on the back of his right hand, and black fish patterns were emerging.

"Boom~"

Hua Changxi did not suppress the anger in her heart. No matter what Grandpa Hua and the Hua family members were trying to do, she was too lazy to think too much at the moment. She just wanted to vent her anger and send out her spiritual pressure directly.

In an instant, the gravity like a mountain pressed down on everyone in the room. Within a few breaths, everyone began to break out in cold sweats.

Old Man Hua wanted to speak, but he was horrified to find that he couldn't open his mouth. Especially after meeting Hua Changxi's cold eyes, he became even more upset.

He regretted that he should not have been provoked by the chief elder and actually called Jiu Niang in. He even wanted to put pressure on her together with other elders to correct her rebellious temper and restrain and discipline her.

"Jiu Niang."

The oldest person in the room was the patriarch, who was still a mortal. Just when he felt he could not hold on any longer, Hua Minghe and Hua Dalang hurried into the room.

The moment the two entered the room, Hua Changxi took back the spiritual pressure.

Seeing that everyone was sweating and looking ugly, Hua Dalang walked up to Hua Changxi and asked, "Aren't you entertaining guests? Why did you come in?"

Hua Changxi smiled and said, "I didn't mean to disturb the elders. My grandfather asked me to come in and said that the elders wanted to see me." Then he looked around the room with a smile and said, "What instructions do the elders have?"

The spiritual pressure released by Hua Changxi just now really shocked everyone in the room. They didn't expect that Hua Changxi would really dare to attack them.

Several elders remained silent, and it was Hua Hongqi who spoke up in the end: "The elders don't have any instructions, they just want to meet the younger generation of the clan. Jiu Niang, there's nothing to do here, go and do your thing."

Hua Changxi glanced at Hua Hongqi and said with a smile, "Dad, brother, I'll go to the kitchen to help." After that, he turned around and left the house.

After his daughter left, Hua Minghe looked at Grandpa Hua with disappointment.

Hua Dalang also felt a little headache and helpless.

Although the father and son were exhausted, they still had to put on a smile to liven up the atmosphere in the room.

Fortunately, Hua Hongqi is here. He is the eldest son of the crown prince and has a high status. With him cooperating with Hua Minghe and his son, others have to give him face.

When people in the room started talking and laughing again, Hua Hongqi lowered his head and looked at the jade pendant around his waist without making a sound.

A long and thin crack appeared on the smooth and round jade pendant.

This is the jade pendant that his grandfather gave him for protection, which can block the attacks of Jindan cultivators. But just now, Hua Changxi just released a little spiritual pressure and the jade pendant broke. What does this mean?
Hua Hongqi took a breath, looked at Hua Minghe and Hua Dalang, smiled again, and joined in the conversation.
