Lord of the Nine Realms

Chapter 142 You Are Tempted
Maple Leaf City, Anjia's inner residence.

The candlelight on the candlestick was dim, An Muyu was sitting on a chair in the hanging flower hall with a pretty face, and Yu'er was cleaning up the porcelain residue on the floor with a broom.

Just now, An Qi and An Chen had a big quarrel here, and An Chen slapped his younger brother in the face. The two completely fell out.

No one can control An Muyu now, and no one can persuade him.

An Chen was furious now. He arranged a marriage for An Muyu, but An Muyu refused and even moved out the Lu family to support her.

An Qi also refused to agree to the marriage he arranged for An Qi.

Not only that, An Qi met some small businessmen and hawkers from somewhere, and they always sent things home: This is a rare tea cup, please give it to Mr. An Qi; my relatives picked it from Fenghuang Mountain, a hundred miles away. Please taste the fragrant tea, Mr. An Qi...

There are also some men in shabby clothes who hang around outside the An family gate. When they meet the An family, they ask: Mr. An Qi is there? Is there anything you need help with? I have fast legs and I am not afraid of getting tired.

Now people outside are talking about how kind and righteous An Qi is. When they heard that An Qi was back, they were all stuck in the street like dogs.

An Chen, the real head of the family, was ignored. This was tolerable.

Just now, An Chen arranged a task for An Qi. The food was about to be harvested, and he was asked to patrol the fields outside the city to avoid being stolen by the poor.

An Qi not only refused to go, but also refused confidently, saying that she had something to do and didn't need your attention.

Then he got a slap in the face and threw a teacup in anger.

An Muyu was desperate for this family. She couldn't control anything and had no way to control it.

"Miss, Miss Lu is here."

Just as Yu'er finished speaking, Lu Qingluan had already walked in from the outside with his maid Jin Cui. He was also wearing an extremely fake mustache and a white fan to cover his chest. He stared at the remaining water stains on the ground with peach blossom eyes.

Jin Cui placed the wooden box weighing more than 20 kilograms on the ground and followed Yu'er out.

"Miss Lu, what's wrong with coming so late?"

No matter how bad his mood was, An Muyu had to force a smile when facing the Miss Lu family.

"Nuo, these are some alchemy materials that Boss Chen asked for. Brother Liangshan went to several places to buy them. You can ask Boss Chen to send the Second Falcon to get them later."

"and also!"

Lu Qingluan sat on a chair and took out a stack of gold tickets from his sleeve: "We brought back a lot of spiritual plants this time, which is equivalent to 9700 gold coins. These materials cost 500 gold coins, and the remaining 9200 gold coins will be given to you."

An Muyu almost collapsed when he heard that. The three thousand gold coins last time were almost spent. Now it's here again. Is it still over?

"Miss Lu, thank you for your trouble."

An Muyu wanted to refuse directly, but there was no point in refusing to Lu Qingluan. It was better to give these gold coins to An Qi later, and he could waste them however he wanted.

Seeing An Muyu calmly accept the golden ticket, Lu Qingluan's doubts grew. She was very curious about the relationship between the two, but she couldn't ask directly about such things.

"This time I went to the desert, I was really moved by it!"

"That Chen Yuansheng is really an incredible person. In just a few months, he built a territory with nothing..."

As Lu Qingluan said this, he secretly looked at An Muyu's expression, hoping to see any flaws.

Hearing others praise Chen Yuansheng, An Muyu, who was already in a bad mood, was so upset that she wanted to drive Lu Qingluan out.

But gradually, An Muyu discovered something strange. She found that the beauty opposite her became more and more excited as she talked, and her peach blossom eyes were still twinkling with looming little stars.

"Staying at home all year round, I really didn't know there were people like this out there."

"You don't know, the first time I saw him, I could feel the strong murderous aura in him even from a distance away. It was so oppressive that I couldn't breathe. It was so scary."

Lu Qingluan said as he raised his jade hand and patted his chest hard, causing a wave of waves, as if he was scared.

An Muyu bit her lips with her silver teeth and said with a smile: "Miss Lu, it's so rare! There are still men in this world who can make you attracted. I always thought that Miss Lu came from a famous family and looked down on these ordinary people."

"what!"

Lu Qingluan's pretty face turned as red as a big apple, a hint of shame and anger flashed in her peach blossom eyes, she glared at An Muyu fiercely and stood up: "Humph! If Miss An makes such a joke, then let's not do it again in the future. We're back and forth." "Sister, don't be angry."

Seeing that Lu Qingluan was really angry, An Muyu also felt a little regretful, and quickly stood up and walked over, grabbing the former's wrist: "I just said that casually, really, we sisters can't even make a joke, right?" .”

"Actually, I also really want to hear your story about the desert this time. Angel didn't even tell me."

Lu Qingluan took a deep breath to calm down, and a hint of teasing flashed through the corner of his mouth: "Really? I really have a funny little story. Don't tell me that I told you."

A trace of doubt flashed in An Muyu's beautiful eyes, and she nodded gently: "Well, don't worry, I don't have anyone to tell."

Lu Qingluan leaned her body on the table with a slight smile, raised her hand and turned An Muyu's pretty face to her side with a folding fan, leaned into her ear and whispered: "Remember that girl who is a mother and a daughter-in-law? The one who is very beautiful and can dance.”

"Remember!"

The hair next to An Muyu's ears was itched by the blowing, and she tried hard to get out of the way, but was blocked back by Lu Qingluan's folding fan.

"This time her mother asked me to bring her a message to redeem her, but she refused to come back and said she could no longer live without her master."

"Tsk tsk! I can't bear to look at that shy, coquettish, and charming look."

Feeling An Muyu's ears tremble slightly, Lu Qingluan's mood instantly improved. He slowly pushed her away and said proudly: "You must keep it a secret! I'm leaving. I'll come back another day."

It wasn't until Lu Qingluan left the room that An Muyu gradually came back to his senses.

"Miss... are you okay?"

Yu'er came in from the outside and saw An Muyu with a pale face holding the table in a daze, so she quickly asked.

"I'm fine, what can I do."

An Muyu took a deep breath, sat back on the chair, and said expressionlessly: "Yu'er, come with me to the city tomorrow to buy the best brocade, the best jewelry, and the most expensive spiritual plant cream."

…………

When the team returned to the territory, it was almost ten o'clock in the evening.

The lights were still brightly lit in the small courtyard of the adobe house, and thick smoke billowed from the kitchen chimney in the night.

Because Luo Xue arranged for Chen Yuansheng to take two baths tonight, several girls stayed awake, lighting the fire and delivering water.

"From frugality to luxury, I have begun to become corrupt."

In the private room, Chen Yuansheng was leaning on the edge of the bathtub. Behind him, Zizhu was washing his hair with a wooden basin. At his side, Luyi was rubbing mud with something of unknown material.

"Your Lingzhi sweet potato is growing crazy, and it will be harvested in half a month. The sweet potato exposed to the ground is thicker than your arm. It is conservatively estimated that one can harvest more than 100 catties."

Luo Xue walked in with her staff and took a piece of white cloth to wipe off the wisps of mud on Chen Yuansheng's shoulders.

"I am also doing an experiment and will use this sweet potato as a seed next year to see if I can still have a good harvest."

Luo Xue nodded: "The two spiritual plants you got have been planted. I don't know if they can survive this season."

During this six-day hunt, in addition to harvesting unusual points, Chen Yuansheng also discovered two spiritual plants, discovered by the green camel and the demon camel. They were both very sensitive to spiritual plants.

Of course, if they weren't pursuing speed, they would definitely find more spiritual plants.

The branches and leaves of two spiritual plants and a third-level ginseng were less than one meter high on the ground, but the longest underground rhizome was more than two meters long. Chen Yuansheng pulled them all out and transplanted them back;

A second-level lotus leaf blue heart fruit, the fruit on it had long been eaten, Chen Yuansheng moved the spiritual plant back.

"It's okay. Let the little bears water more first. If it doesn't work, I'll think of a way."

Luo Xue didn't dwell on the problem anymore, turned around and sat on the stool next to her: "The weather is getting colder and colder. The boys in the village have thin clothes. We only have animal skins here. You can't just let them wear animal skins."

Chen Yuansheng sat upright while holding the bathtub, and said seriously: "This hunting gave me an idea. I want to open up a second business route. Things such as food, clothes, fabrics, and daily necessities can be bought from the Xueling Kingdom. "

"Who are you asking to carry you on a mountain road of more than 200 miles? Neither camels nor oxen can do it."
