Chapter 272 Believe me, the Yun family must stand together with the Ninth Mountain (asking for monthly tickets)
Just when Pingkou Lane was bustling,
On the other side, the Xia family's convoy was heading towards the Yun family, away from that street, in a sedan chair at the back.
Xia Qing, the second daughter of the Xia family, was dressed in a bright and elegant blue and white palace dress. She was holding the emerald jade hairpin that she had just "given" away. Her eyes were slightly narrowed, and a look of uncertainty passed through her eyes.
Two pretty maids were kneeling beside her, hitting her calves with delicate little wooden hammers. One of the maids, with a somewhat arrogant look on her face, started to talk nonsense, "Second Madam, you are so easy to talk to. If that boy didn't have the title of the Ninth Mountain, he would be just a mud-legged peasant. He dared to be so unreasonable and offend Second Madam. What do you think of yourself?"
Second Mother is what the eldest family members call Liu Qing.
"That's right, Er Niang's reputation was actually rubbed by a small soldier. The world is really going downhill. Er Niang is still too kind-hearted. If you ask me, just kill her." Another maid with a delicate appearance also echoed, sticking out her tongue and saying words of murder.
Xia Qing's eyes moved down from the hairpin at this time. She hooked the chin of the innocent maid with one hand and smiled gently. There was a hint of enchantment in her brightness.
"You are a girl, but you always want to kill people. This is not good. Even the uncles in front didn't say anything."
As he spoke, his fingertips brushed across the maid's chin, his eyes flickered a few times, "The world is going downhill, it is indeed going downhill."
"Second Madam, are you really planning to marry Yun Tiansheng from the Yun family? He is a soldier and seems very rude. Just thinking about the strong smell on his body makes you feel terrible. How can you stand it, Second Madam? Those famous families who enjoy the breeze and the moon are more understanding of romance." The maid asked curiously.
Based on their understanding of following and serving the young lady for many years, Second Mother is a girl but has a man's heart. In a noble family like the Xia family, family resources often favor male heirs, but their Second Mother has stood out from the fights among many brothers and sisters, and is in charge of and manages many of the industries of this huge Xia family.
Her progress in martial arts is no worse than that of men, and now she is just one step away from success.
Whenever she went out, countless young masters from famous families would meet her by chance and invite her to go with them, but none of them pleased her.
They also knew that with Er Niang's personality, she didn't want to be dominated by those stinky men.
This time, Er Niang took the initiative to talk about this matter and wanted to form an alliance with the Yun family. Even though, as Er Niang said, it was to save the head of the family, as someone who had followed him for many years, he did not understand.
There isn't such deep affection in a big family!
The second daughter of the Xia family, after hearing what the maid said, smiled meaningfully, "It's not that I can only choose this person, but that he was chosen by me."
"Take your time and look at the long term."
As she spoke, the woman looked at the emerald hairpin in her hand with her phoenix eyes, and then she squeezed it.
The emerald jade hairpin immediately shattered into tiny crystal slag, which was blown out of the sedan chair with a flick of the sleeve.
Soon,
The horse team in front stopped.
Soon, a respectful voice came from outside the sedan chair.
"Miss, the Yun family is almost here."
"it is good!"
"To deliver a visiting card."
"Let the uncles go in first."
As she finished speaking, a deep voice came,
"Qing'er, your uncle and I will go first. After all, it is not convenient for you to show up for this matter. If there is any change, you can go and visit Mr. Yun San in your name."
It was the voice of the second master of the Xia family.
"Yes, but it's up to you two uncles to tell you."
Inside the sedan, Xia Qing responded obediently, and then her phoenix eyes moved around, trying hard to recall Yun Tiansheng's appearance and the moments they had spent together in the past.
She had a good memory, but now she thought about it, she couldn't remember what was special about this person. However, she was not in a hurry. She was confident in her heart and just acted according to the plan.
However, less than ten minutes later, the sound of horse hooves was heard outside, followed by a report from someone outside, with a loud gasp.
"Second Master, Third Master, Miss"
"Many people have come to the Yun family. Our men have seen the sedan chairs and people from the Murong family, the Liu family, and the Four Seas Sect. What should we do?"
These families that people outside are talking about are all considerable aristocratic families in Jinguan City.
As soon as these words were spoken, Xia Qing, who was sitting in the sedan chair with a majestic and bright eye, slightly changed her expression, but she had already expected this situation.
Since the Xia family knows the relationship between the Yun family and the Ninth Mountain, other families naturally know it as well.
"Qing'er, then you can come with us. Now it seems that all the members of the Yun family have the same goal as you and me. It seems that the method you mentioned can only rely on you."
The voice of the second master of the Xia family came from the sedan chair next door, and he didn't seem surprised.
"Qing'er knows." Xia Qing's face regained its composure and she responded.
Then, the men and horses continued to move forward until they stopped in front of a mansion that covered a large area.
"Miss, the Yun family is here!"
A respectful voice came from outside.
Xia Qing's beautiful eyes flashed, and she got off the sedan chair. Her temperament and beauty made the surroundings suddenly bright.
At the same time, two middle-aged men dressed in gorgeous clothes and with extraordinary demeanor also got out of the other two sedan chairs.
He is the second and third master of the Xia family!
The two of them looked at the sedan chairs of various families placed in front of the door and narrowed their eyes slightly. So many forces came to visit this originally second-rate family.
I hope the Yun family won’t become arrogant!
At this time, in front of the gate of the Yun family mansion, a man who looked like a butler came up and held the handrail.
"My name is Yunfu, and I am the housekeeper of the mansion. The two Tianguan are here to visit you. Please come in."
The Xia family had already handed in a visiting card. The butler politely greeted them without saying much and directly invited them in.
The second and third masters of the Xia family put their hands behind their backs and nodded, but did not move their bodies for the time being, and turned their faces to the side. At this time, Xia Qing came forward, raised her bright eyes, and greeted them generously.
"Please inform the Third Young Master of your family. The Third Young Master and I are old friends. I heard that he returned triumphantly from the demon front. Second Lady wants to meet him and reminisce about the past."
When the housekeeper heard that the second daughter of the Xia family wanted to see the third young master, he looked embarrassed.
"To be honest, Miss Xia, several of our Third Young Master's 'old friends' have come to visit us, but they have all been turned down, and the Young Master has already said that he won't see anyone. This... I think the Third Young Master just came back from the battlefield and is quite busy, so we servants don't want to disturb him!"
Xia Qing heard the housekeeper's polite refusal, as if hinting at something. Her long eyelashes twitched slightly, and then she took out a jade pendant from her waist and said in a clear voice:
"After seeing this jade pendant, your third young master will come to see me. This is a token of trust."
"Then I'll try again!" Butler Yun Fu took the jade pendant.
In fact, he was not unfamiliar with the famous Second Lady of the Xia family. It seemed that the Third Young Master had been involved with her. To be on the safe side, he accepted the position.
And what he said was not false. There were indeed many old friends who claimed to be the Third Young Master and came to pay him a visit, but they were all rejected.
"Someone, go ask the Third Young Master!"
He called someone, and a servant took the jade pendant and ran into the mansion.
"Three of you, why don't you go to the front hall and wait? There are many distinguished guests in the mansion today. I think the master will be here soon."
"Don't worry, wait!"
The second master of the Xia family waved his hand.
The key person they want to break through is the Third Young Master Yun, and they want to see if Qing'er can make any progress.
After waiting for about half a cup of tea, the servant of the Yun family who had just gone to deliver the token came running back quickly.
Seeing this, Xia Qing's previously calm demeanor turned into a hurried tone.
"What did your Third Young Master say?"
"My dear Miss Xia," said the servant of the Yun family, and handed the jade pendant back with both hands.
"The Third Young Master said he won't see you!"
As soon as these words came out, the second daughter of the eldest branch of the Xia family's eyebrows twitched, her lips also twitched, and her hands clenched tightly in her sleeves.
"You said it was the Second Lady of the Xia Family who wanted to see him!"
"I did!"
"Did he see the token?"
"The third young master didn't even look at it and told me to leave." The Yun family servant replied.
Xia Qing's face flushed a little. She was about to speak, but she heard a deep voice from the side.
"Qing'er, stop talking."
The second master of the Xia family spoke with a gloomy tone and an ugly expression.
Now there is only one last resort, which is to ask the Yun family for a solution together with other families.
"Someone, bring the stuff up!"
Soon, Xia family's men took down precious gift boxes from the sedan chair. Many of them were sealed with talismans, apparently for fear that the preciousness would be exposed.
If you ask for help from someone, of course you have to give gifts.
Xia Qing did not consider this aspect, but the second master of the Xia family thought about the matter comprehensively.
"Come on, let's go to the front hall!"
When Xia Qing saw this scene, her pretty face changed. Finally, she let out a breath, felt that she had lost her composure a little, and calmed down.
What a great Yun Tiansheng!
Could it be that he is playing hard to get with her?
These are all her leftovers.
Her eyes lit up again.
At this time, three people were sitting in the study room of the Yun family's main house.
The head of the Yun family, Yun Fangting, the second branch of the Yun family, Yun Chuxiong, and the third young master of the Yun family, Yun Tiansheng, the captain of the Ninth Mountain.
Yun Fangting sat at the head of the table and smiled, "Haha, it's all thanks to you. These guys who usually don't treat our Yun family well came to visit us today. I heard they brought a lot of good things with them."
"You know their purpose better than I do. First of all, I have no right to interfere in this matter. You two should handle it."
Yun Fangting, the head of the Yun family, had a radiant look in his eyes, thinking back to a month ago when he decided to listen to his nephew Yun Tiansheng's advice and support the Ninth Mountain, which resulted in today's scene. It was really encouraging. The status of the Yun family also rose as the Ninth Mountain's Lieutenant General gained tremendous power.
"I'll go!"
Yun Tiansheng frowned his resolute brows, then stood up and went out without any hesitation.
Yun Fangting looked at his second brother Yun Chuxiong, feeling a little worried. "Are you confident in letting Tiansheng go?" Yun Chuxiong smiled with relief. "Brother, don't worry. Tiansheng has followed Jiu Zhonglang in many battles and has seen many big scenes. He has grown up very fast and has surpassed his father and me. Now he can take up the responsibility of the Yun family!"
Yun Fangting nodded, full of admiration, "It seems that you and your son have gained a lot from this trip. You will soon condense your Dao soldiers, right?"
"Yeah! I didn't expect that either. Brother, there are some things I don't know how to describe, but believe me, the Yun family must stand together with the Ninth Mountain in the future!"
