Start by summoning Black Death Mou

Chapter 22 Discover the energy source!
Mentioning this matter, Gu Chen also showed a little fear and uneasiness on his face, and said in a low voice:

"Yeah, tomorrow...I'm going to live in Tao's house."

For a 13-year-old boy, who has just experienced the destruction of his family, and somehow became the son-in-law of a certain family, Gu Chen should indeed express his confusion and anxiety about the future.

And this appearance will definitely arouse Tao Qianqian's sympathy, because in Tao Qianqian's eyes, Gu Chen is not so much a future husband, but more like a younger brother who has adopted Tao's family.

Tao Qianqian has been treating him like a younger brother in the past few days. Of course, at the same time, she may have made preparations to be with Gu Chen for the rest of her life.

With a little smile and encouragement in her eyes, Tao Qianqian walked up to Gu Chen, and said softly:
"Don't be nervous. Since father hasn't talked to you these days, it proves that father has accepted your existence. From now on... just treat yourself as a member of the Tao family."

"Uncle Tao doesn't like me."

"But he didn't reject you, so rest assured."

Tao Qianqian encouraged Gu Chen gently.

Tao Yuan may have been dissatisfied with Gu Chen becoming the Tao family's son-in-law at first, but the problem is that Gu Chengye seems to value Gu Chen very much, and Tao Yuan also discovered this during this period of getting along.

Especially after Gu Chengye decided to hand over half of the Gu family's assets in Dan'an City to Gu Chen, Tao Yuan didn't even mention regretting the marriage.

In the beginning, Tao Yuan wanted to regret the marriage because Gu Chen's marriage could not bring him the expected benefits. Now that Gu Chen can bring him what he wanted, Tao Yuan would not refuse Gu Chen's marriage.

But having said that, it is somewhat difficult to make Tao Yuan like Gu Chen, after all, Gu Chen's background lies there.

"Miss Tao..."

"If you don't mind, you can call me Sister Qianqian. After all, before you are an adult, you and I are not husband and wife, so it doesn't matter what you call me."

In this world, men are 16 years old and women are 14 years old. Only when they reach adulthood are they eligible to marry.

Gu Chen is now 13 years old, so even if he is a married son-in-law, he will have to wait until he is 16 to marry Tao Qianqian. For Gu Chen, there are still three years to go.

Presumably Tao Yuan originally agreed to let Gu Chen marry, but he also had the idea that he didn't want his daughter to marry off immediately.

Three years is still too long, no one knows exactly what will happen in three years, maybe nothing will happen, Gu Chen finally married Tao Qianqian smoothly.

But it is also possible that too many accidents happened in the past three years, which made it impossible for Gu Chen and Tao Qianqian to get married.

There are too many uncertainties, no one can say for sure, but Tao Yuan has three years to prepare, and if Tao Yuan really becomes popular after three years, then even if Tao Yuan wants to regret the marriage, Gu Chen can't help it .

After all, he is just an illegitimate child.

But Gu Chen didn't care about it, Tao Yuan needed it for three years, and Gu Chen needed it too.

He needs a safe place for himself to live and develop. As long as Tao Yuan doesn't deal with Gu Chen like the Gu family, Gu Chen can stay at Tao's house for three years with peace of mind.

As for what will happen after three years... we will talk about it at that time.

After the thoughts in his heart settled down, Gu Chen continued what he said just now:
"Okay, Sister Qianqian, actually... I don't have the idea of ​​marrying Sister Qianqian, after all, with my background... I really don't deserve Sister Qianqian."

"Silly brother, what are you talking about? It's the words of the parents and the matchmaker. Since my father has promised to let me betroth you, then I will be your future wife. You don't have to think too much. You can stay at Tao's house for the past few years." That's it."

Tao Qianqian said softly.

She is the most traditional woman. From birth to growing up, the education she received was the most feudal education in the world. She would do whatever her parents asked her to do. She would not say a word if her parents asked her to marry someone. No word.

At most, she is just secretly looking forward to her future husband not being too ugly, but that's all.

In fact, Tao Qianqian breathed a sigh of relief when she knew that her future husband was Gu Chen. Leaving aside Gu Chen's background, at least... he looks good.

Once Tao Qianqian said this, Gu Chen knew that this topic could not be continued.

Before Tao Yuan denied it, Tao Qianqian would admit that Gu Chen was her husband, and it was useless for Gu Chen to say anything.

Although this can't be said to be bad, it's just that Gu Chen originally wanted to be more low-key... Forget it, let's do this first.

Gu Chen closed his mouth and stopped talking. Tao Qianqian smiled and waved to the maid beside him. The maid came over and handed Gu Chen a Guanyin statue carved from white jade.

Tao Qianqian then said:
"You take this. This is the Jade Guanyin that I asked the master to ask for today when I went to the mountain to worship the Buddha. I wear it on my body to heal diseases and eliminate disasters. I think your body is weak and you are a little afraid of light. Wearing this often may make you feel better. Get better."

"Thank you, Miss Qianqian..."

Gu Chen held the jade pendant in his hand, and was about to thank Tao Qianqian, but suddenly froze there, looking at the jade pendant in his hand with a slightly dazed expression.

"what happened?"

Noticing the change in Gu Chen's expression, Tao Qianqian asked suspiciously.

Gu Chen quickly returned to normal, and said to Tao Qianqian gratefully with a smile:

"It's okay, it's still... it's the first time someone gave me something since I was a child, so... I'm very touched..."

"Oh, it turns out to be like this. Don't worry, if you like it, I will choose a gift for you every festival and your birthday."

"How can this be done! Sister Qianqian..."

"Okay, that's it."

Before Gu Chen could finish speaking, Tao Qianqian settled the matter a bit forcefully, then she looked up at the sky and said to Gu Chen:

"It's getting late now, you should go to rest earlier, tomorrow we have to get up early and move to Tao Mansion."

Tao Qianqian got up and said goodbye and left.

Gu Chen got up to send Tao Qianqian away, and waited until Tao Qianqian and his maid could no longer be seen, then quickly took out the jade pendant in his hand, and looked at it solemnly.

"My lord, is there something wrong with this jade pendant?"

Ying appeared from Gu Chen's shadow, seeing Gu Chen's solemn expression, Ying couldn't help asking.

Gu Chen didn't answer immediately, he threw the jade pendant to Ying, and said:

"Check it out and see if you can spot anything."

Ying did it truthfully, but after checking it over and over several times, Ying returned the jade pendant without finding anything, and said:

"My lord, forgive me for being stupid, I didn't find anything..."

"Is that so..." Gu Chen raised his head and looked in another direction: "Hei Si Mou, did you find anything?"

"A piece of ordinary jade pendant, nothing more."

The voice of Hei Si Mou appeared in front of Gu Chen together with his figure. From his perception and sight, the jade pendant was nothing more than a normal jade pendant. There was nothing inside.

But having said that, looking at Gu Chen's expression, Hei Si Mou knew that this jade pendant might not be as simple as he imagined.

So Hei Si Mou asked again:

"Is there anything strange about the jade pendant?"

"...This jade pendant just added a little bit of energy to me. Although there is only a little bit of energy, but... it has indeed been replenished."

Facing his summoned Hei Si Mou, Gu Chen answered truthfully, he knew that Hei Si Mou could understand what he said.

The so-called "replenishment of energy" in his mouth is exactly to replenish the energy of the summoning formation in his body!
