Queen of Nongmen: Hexagrams determine the universe

Chapter 122 A New Strategy
"What's the matter?" The old Taoist was a little displeased.

It was precisely because Fang Taozhi was his own daughter that he wanted to be stricter with her. Who knew that this girl was impetuous, and she was not the type to subdue demons at all.

He repeatedly tried to correct her, but it was always to no avail, which made him quite helpless.

The eldest disciple will return to the family to inherit the family business in the future, his daughter has no intention of cultivating Taoism, and the third disciple lacks comprehension. Could it be that the inheritance of their lineage will be broken in his hands?

"It's just some girls' affairs." Fang Taozhi said vaguely.

"Okay," the old Taoist nodded helplessly, "However, from now on, you have to double the time you spend practicing drawing talismans. After all, demons and ghosts will not show mercy to you!"

Fang Taozhi curled her lips secretly, she thought her morality was high enough, and it was more than enough to save her life!

What's more, she will become Brother Xiao's wife in the future, so what's the use of learning these things?

"Got it." She said perfunctorily.

East of the city, Fu Mansion.

The sun moves westward, and the bamboo shadows are deep. The smooth ebony tabletop, under the dim light, looks like flowing black water.

The signature smirk on Manager Fu's face disappeared, and he stood with his hands behind his back, his eyes darkened.

"The specific thing is like this." Ah Cai said in a low voice.

"How long has it been since I got on the county magistrate's line? Ye Qiongdan is really good at getting on Qian Hu's line with my back foot!" Manager Fu snorted coldly, "I really underestimated her!"

Manager Fu had wanted to make friends with Lord Qianhu several times, but unfortunately, Lord Qianhu who had military power in his hands didn't look down on him at all, and every time he refused to see him on the excuse of busy work.

Even the face of the magistrate, Qian Hu seldom cared about it.

Because every time he sent troops to suppress the bandits, the magistrate of the county had to beg on the head of Qian Hu. After all, it would be a fool's dream to want to suppress the bandits with only a few yamen servants in the yamen!

"Calm down, my lord, she's just a yellow-haired girl, she won't be around for a few days." Ah Cai said hastily.

"It won't be a few days? The branch of Quanfu Building is about to open!" Manager Fu clenched his fists, furious, "Have you heard the names of the signature dishes they announced in advance? What kind? You are not fighting our Bazhen Building, it is unreasonable! You are too deceitful!"

"My lord, if she loses in this arena, she will be humiliating herself." Ah Cai said cautiously.

"Then what if she wins the ring?" Manager Fu frowned.

"This..." Ah Cai didn't dare to answer, and after a long time, he said weakly with a smile on his face, "This is probably impossible, right?"

"I hope so," Manager Fu pursed his lips, and said a little uneasy, "There is always an evil spirit in this girl!"

"Then what are you going to do?"

"Of course the Quanfu Building in the county can't be opened, otherwise, wouldn't it be telling Qingyuan County and the steward to see a joke again?" Steward Fu closed his eyes, took a deep breath, and tried to calm down The anger in my heart.

"My lord, in my humble opinion, the recipes of the signature dishes announced by Quan Fu Lou in advance this time are actually just a gimmick. They just want to use Bazhen Lou to raise their own value. The taste of these dishes may not be good. It can surpass the taste of Bazhenlou's signature dishes," Ah Cai said after deliberation, "What's more, Ye Qiongdan has a grudge with you, my lord, and you are hurting yourself with anger now, isn't it playing into her hands?"

"What you said is not unreasonable." Manager Fu gradually calmed down.

"So, why do you need to worry about this matter, my lord?"

"Since the fight in the ring is just a gimmick, why don't I let that dead girl shoot her in the foot? Or let her know that in Qinghe County, I'm not easy to mess with, Manager Fu!" Manager Fu calmed down. After coming down, he quickly thought of a brilliant idea, he called Ah Cai to come over, and whispered some things in his ear.

After hearing this, Ah Cai's eyes lit up, and he nodded quickly.

The next day, Ye Qiongdan cured Mr. Qianhu's illness in Qinghe County, and was also known by the day laborers who returned to the village from the county.

In the evening, when Ye Qiongdan returned to the village, he was praised by the villagers.

"Hey, it's not easy to think that Dan girl of the third room is really not easy, and now even Mrs. Qianhu's illness can be cured!"

"That's right, that's Master Qianhu who has the military power in his hands. It's really amazing for Dan girl to know such a big man!"

"So, who said women are inferior to men? Look at the girl Dan in our village, how promising she is!"

……

Ye Qiongdan nodded modestly to the enthusiastic villagers.

Since Ye Qiongdan cured Mr. Qianhu's illness, Mr. Ye seemed to feel honored after hearing the news. After hesitating a few times, he left the old house and walked around the village a few times.

He felt that it was very beneficial to hear the villagers' praise for this granddaughter.

While benefiting from it, he was filled with emotion.

In the past, he put all his hopes on Dafang, hoping to use his whole family's strength to give a confession to Dafang. Unexpectedly, Dafang ended up in such a ridiculous end. , life is getting more and more unusual.

Thinking of this, he no longer had the mood to wander around the village, and returned to the house in a state of dismay.

In the house, Ye Fengxian's voice came: "Mother! Is dinner ready? I'm starving to death!"

"Spirit-inducing!" Mrs. Ye is becoming more and more dissatisfied with her eldest son. In the past, every time the eldest son had an accident, he always wanted to get the wool from the old couple. It's getting old, it's really maddening!
Ye Fengxian was so thick-skinned that he didn't feel ashamed to be scolded by Mrs. Ye. Instead, he went into the kitchen, glanced at the food on the table, and complained: "Why are there no chickens, ducks and fishes? What's the matter?" eat?"

"Get out if you don't eat, and die outside!" Mrs. Ye endured the pain in her old back and cursed, "Didn't you say that when you separated the family last time, shouldn't you share the money and land with the old couple? Why do you have it now?" Face to eat and drink at home? At such an age, if you don’t take care of yourself, you still have to eat and eat, and you are not afraid of thunder! Go outside as soon as possible, save me some time!”

Piaoxu came over to persuade Mrs. Ye, but unexpectedly, she was slapped by Mrs. Ye raising her hand.

Mrs. Ye wished she could get away, so as not to waste the family's food!

Mr. Ye walked into the yard, heard the continuous scolding in the kitchen, and Piaoxu's low cry, and sighed.

After Mrs. Ye finished scolding, Ye Feng first took a bowl and started to eat in advance. After taking a few mouthfuls, his eyes rolled and he suddenly said: "Mother, look, our eldest family has no ability to serve you anymore. right?"

"Why not? Even if you don't go to the school in the village to be a teacher, but go to be a tracker by the pier, it is more than enough to support yourself!" Mrs. Ye said angrily.

"Mother, you expect our big house to support you and dad. That's not very possible. Go to the pier to be a tracker? Not to mention that I don't have the strength, and dad can't afford to lose that person!" Ye Fengxian was disgusted in the dishes. Picking and choosing, he said, "How about, in the future, only the second, third, and fourth rooms will take care of you?"

"Damn! Do you expect your fourth brother to support us in the old age? You can tell!"

"Doesn't the fourth brother have 150 taels of silver? Then why can't we provide for the elderly?" Ye Fengxian said enthusiastically, "Besides, don't the second, third, and fourth bedrooms just eat chicken, duck and fish?"

The old lady paused for a moment, but she was a little moved.

"Don't go!" Mr. Ye entered the kitchen and hammered the ground hard with his crutches, "Isn't Ah Gang working in the county? As the saying goes, if you don't do anything, let your son do it. Our old couple will take care of the elderly, so as not to let outsiders see the joke again!"

As soon as this remark came out, there was no sound in the kitchen.

But Ye Fengxian and the old lady were still thinking about it. After dinner, Ye Fengxian found the old lady quietly and said in a low voice: "Mother, my son still thinks that you should go to the second, third and fourth bedrooms to enjoy your happiness."

Mrs. Ye snorted coldly: "It was agreed at the beginning that the first room will support one month, and the deadline for this month has not yet come. Can that **** girl agree? With the support of that **** girl, the second room will be supported. The two losers seem to have found the backbone, and they don't pay attention to me one by one, and they don't worry about being pecked blind by an eagle one day!"

"Mother, if that dead girl disagrees, we'll..." Ye Fengxian whispered a cunning scheme into the old lady's ear.

"Isn't it possible that if nothing happens, you will be beaten first?" Mrs. Ye touched her waist, which was always sick, and became very timid.

"What are you afraid of? Besides, let's threaten first. If that damn girl is not threatened by us, we will fight her to the death!" Ye Fengxian said proudly, "Then we will start to deal with it tomorrow?"

"It's better to wait for a few days, your father is angry." Mrs. Ye hesitated for a while, and murmured.

Ye Fengxian walked away scratching his heart and lungs, as long as he thought about the days when he would not be able to eat chicken, duck and fish for a few days, he would feel extremely unbearable.

The sky is getting late, and the moon is gradually rising.

Ye Qiongdan said to Ye Qinghan after dinner, "Brother, I'm going to see Ji Honglian."

"I'll go with you." Ye Qinghan said worriedly.

"Don't, I just sent her a murderous knife last night. There is more than 400 years of evil spirits on that knife. Your body can't bear it," Ye Qiongdan said in a low voice, "I passed by alone , if the second brother asks later, you can help me think of a reason to prevaricate."

"I'll give you a ride, and I won't come near you." Even though he knew that she was highly skilled in martial arts, he would still be worried if he let her go out alone at night.

Obviously we see her every day, but when I don't see her, I still miss her.

Knowing that she might be able to protect himself better than him, he still wanted to turn her into a rope and tie her by his side.

It seemed that he would feel at ease only when she was in his sight.

Ye Qinghan lit a lantern and went out with her.

There are lights everywhere in the village, and there are dogs barking from time to time. On the small roads in the country, the fragrance of evening primrose is exuded, and the sound of insects is heard one after another.

Bathed in the starlight all over the sky, the two walked forward at a leisurely pace.

The atmosphere is very good, as relaxed as flying fireflies.

Ye Qiongdan secretly glanced at him who was walking beside him, carefully concealed this secret love, and asked casually, "Brother, do you think that after ten years, we will still have the time to walk in the countryside at night?" ?”
