You Are Not the Only Rich Chapter 111

Two days later, everyone said goodbye to the people of Honeysuckle City and continued heading north.
Oliver hugged the small heater and took a nap in the carriage. Furball squatted aside and played with his father, his little black bean's eyes shining brightly. Ye Jin and Shen Qianfeng rode green jade together and walked slowly outside. The secret guards of Riyue Villa followed closely on horseback, paying attention to any abnormalities in the surroundings. Also, they paid attention to the secret guards of Chaiying Palace so that they could get out of the way quickly when they pounced on them, which was very embarrassing.
The journey was smooth. The weather got colder and the snow became thicker as we went north. By the time we reached the foot of Changbai Snow Mountain, there was a vast expanse of white snow everywhere, with water almost turning into ice.
A group of people were guarding outside the mountain, and the leader was Liancheng Guyue. After the battle in Beixun Village that day, he returned to Wuxuemen, but then learned that Asher and his group were going to Changbai Snow Mountain, so he had to rush home day and night. After all, as the young master of the Liancheng clan, he really had no reason to indulge in the land of beauties at this time.
"Young Master Liancheng has been waiting for a long time." Shen Qianfeng took Ye Jin and dismounted.
"You're welcome, Leader Shen." Liancheng Guyue smiled and stepped aside to make way, "Everyone, please."
The mountain pass was very narrow, but the further you went, the wider it became. The snow gradually decreased. By the time you entered the deep mountains, it was already spring and flowers were blooming, just like March in the south of the Yangtze River. A magnificent mountain villa stood tall, and you couldn't see the end at a glance. Oliver was a little shocked. He thought that paradise only existed in fairy mountains and islands, but he didn't expect that there was such a wonderful place in the snowy Changbai Mountain. If he hadn't seen it with his own eyes, he would never believe it.
Maoqiu was full of novelty. He squatted in the secret guard's arms and turned around to look around. His expression was so cute!
After Liancheng Guyue personally brought everyone to the guest room, he turned around and left, saying that he would come back to invite them to the dinner party. Oliver took off her mink fur and felt too hot, so she also changed out of her cotton clothes, and then she felt more comfortable.
"There are hot springs all around, so there is such an off-season scene." Ye Jin said, "Looking at the scale of the villa, there are at least thousands of people."
"It seems that we haven't walked very long since we entered the mountain." Oliver was puzzled, "Why can the Liancheng clan hide in the snow-capped mountains for generations without being discovered by outsiders?"
"You feel that the time is not long because Liancheng Guyue is leading the way." Asher said, "The road into the mountain is full of the Five Elements and Eight Diagrams. If you don't understand the mystery and force your way in, you will probably be wandering in this snowy mountain for the rest of your life."
"Is that so?" Oliver suddenly realized, "No wonder."
"I just sent a visiting card to Changbai Mountain before, but I didn't expect Liancheng Guyue to come out to greet me in person." Shen Qianfeng said, "It doesn't seem like his character."
"People are always different from the rumors." Ye Jin said, "Ling'er is also rumored to be the one who can control wind and rain. When have you ever seen him cast spells?"
Oliver:...
"No matter what, it's a good thing that Liancheng Guyue agreed to help." Asher said, "As for other things, they are not important."
"Dear guests." While everyone was talking, the butler suddenly said outside, "I am here to bring you hot water for bathing. Do you need it?"
That's a must! After a long journey, it's best to soak in hot water comfortably, okay! The Shadow Chaser held an apple in his mouth and ran out to help enthusiastically, hoping to make new friends. As a result, he was shocked as soon as he walked out of the door. A dozen petite girls, each carrying two large buckets, filed in from outside, without a stumble, and their steps were extremely steady, obviously they also had internal strength.
Faced with such a large number of lolis, the Jianghu mascot shrank back shamefully, looking extremely cowardly.
The secret guard of Riyue Villa snorted coldly, expressing his contempt.
Shadow Chaser Palace Secret Guard: ...
What's there to groan about? We are called gentlemen.
He didn't even look at the girl twice, and his behavior was very good.
After putting down the bucket, the housekeeper respectfully led the guests away. Oliver was puzzled, "How can a girl be asked to work as a handyman?"
"This is Falling Star Spring water. Men's yang energy is turbid. Only girls of seventeen or eighteen can get the water without polluting the water source." Ye Jin said, "Guarding the snow-capped mountains for generations, they must be full of awe of the snow-capped mountains. Naturally, they will use all methods to remove them. Protection is not surprising. "
"So many details?" Oliver was a little surprised. After thinking for a while, he asked again, "How do you know?"
"Since we are coming to Changbai Snow Mountain, we naturally need to find out all the details. We can't rush in." Ye Jin said, "However, there are very few records about the Liancheng clan, and I don't know much about them."
This is already great! Oliver's eyes were filled with admiration.
His sister-in-law is such a helpful wife.
The spring water naturally has a light aroma. Shen Xiaoshou soaked in it comfortably and felt warm in his belly.
"Chirp!" Furball spread his wings and leaned in the small basin nearby, also very lazily.
Everyone was very comfortable, except for the secret guard of Zhuiying Palace, who was standing by the bathtub with a towel wrapped around his waist and couldn't make up his mind!
This is water brought by a girl, it smells delicious and smokes, it's almost life-threatening...
I don't even dare to step in.
Very nervous.
In the main house on the other side, a graceful middle-aged woman was leaning on a soft couch, letting another woman in plain clothes apply danko for her.
Liancheng Guyue knelt in the center of the room, waiting for her and the two of them without saying a word.
"Okay." The plain-clothed woman put away the small porcelain bottle, "I changed it to red for my sister this time, so it doesn't look so creepy."
"Yes, it looks very pleasing to the eye." Mrs. Yongrong nodded in approval and raised her hand to look carefully.
"Mother, aunt." Liancheng Guyue coughed twice.
"Did I ask you to speak?" The graceful woman glared at him, "Keep kneeling!"
"Sister, why are you so angry?" The plain-clothed woman sighed and stepped forward to help Liancheng Guyue up. "What can't be said between mother and son? Guyue is back after all, but Xiaoran has not been seen since then. Who can I tell? Sister, you don't know, I feel so miserable. I gave birth to such a disobedient son. If he didn't want to stay in the snow mountain, I should have forced him to stay. How could it be like this now, three to five years---"
"Ahem!" Liancheng Guyue interrupted her and said sincerely, "Xiaoran has something to do outside. Once the matter is done, he will naturally come back to visit his aunt."
"What good can come from hanging out with you all day long?" Lady Yongrong stood up and reprimanded, "Ignoring the instructions of our ancestors and leading outsiders into the snowy mountains, how can we live up to your surname!"
"Zhou Jue is still lurking in the snowy plains of the far north. If he leads his troops south, he will have to cross the snowy mountains, which will also be a threat to the Liancheng clan." Liancheng Gu Yue said, "Now that someone is willing to help solve the problem, why not do it?"
"A mere Zhou Jue, do you take him seriously?" The graceful lady waved her sleeves, her voice becoming more and more aggressive, "Is it for the Liancheng family or for the Wuxue sect?"
Liancheng Guyue said calmly, "Of course it's for the Liancheng clan."
The graceful woman was so angry that she even wanted to laugh.
The Liancheng clan has never cared about worldly affairs, so how could they get themselves into such muddy water?
"Sister, please stop saying a few words." The woman in plain clothes comforted her, "No matter what the reason is, now the guests have arrived, and there is also a martial arts leader inside. Is it possible that we have to kick them out?"
"If Zhou Jue is eliminated, there will be no threat to the north of Changbai Mountain, which will naturally be a good thing for the Liancheng clan." Liancheng Guyue said, "As for Wuxue Sect, can we wait until this incident is over before making a decision?"
The graceful woman sneered slightly, but did not comment.
The woman in plain clothes winked at her nephew, Lian Cheng Gu Yue understood, and roughly explained the purpose of Asher and others' visit.
Of the two, the graceful lady was the famous Hong Ling Piao Xiang Shisan Niang, named after she was the thirteenth child in the family. The other plain-clothed lady was her younger sister, named Hong Mian. More than twenty years ago, when she was traveling in the world, Shisan Niang met the previous owner of Changbai Snow Mountain, and she married her husband and followed him to the northeast, completely disappearing from the world. Her family was originally a local rich man in the northwest. It was a headache to have such a shocking daughter, but she didn't expect that she would have to marry someone in the snow mountain. Although she was distressed, she had no choice but to pay a large dowry and let her go, and also gave her younger daughter as a dowry so that the two sisters could have someone to take care of. A few years later, when Hong Mian grew up, Shisan Niang found a relative from the Liancheng clan for her to marry, and they lived a happy and stable life.
The two sisters have tempers that are quick and then slow down, which is a perfect match. Liancheng Guyue grasped this rule. Whenever she made a mistake when she was young, she would seek refuge with her aunt. Over the years, it became a habit. Facts have also proved that this trick is indeed effective - at least after hearing the whole story, Thirteen Niang did not get angry, but leaned on the couch thoughtfully.
"In fact, we are not at a loss." Hong Mian said, "Although you and I have not been out of the mountain for these years, we know everything about the outside world. According to Shen Qianfeng's character, he should not force others. This time, we have solved Zhou Jue, and it will save the Liancheng clan from having to work hard in the future. Why not?"
"That's all, let's take a look at it tonight." Thirteenth Niang rubbed her temples, "If you give birth to a rebellious son, there is no other way."
Liancheng Guyue knew what to do and kept silent, but he felt relieved in his heart.
To be fair, 90% of the time he was willing to help was because Yin Wushuang spoke up, and it had nothing to do with the court's moral stability. Although my mother seemed a little difficult to deal with, she never refused again, and it could be said to be smooth.
As for how things will develop in the future, you can only rely on your own efforts.
An hour later, Thirteen Niang and Hong Mian were sitting in the dining room, waiting for guests to arrive. After about half a stick of incense had passed, there was a sound of footsteps outside, and then the door curtain was opened.
"Chirp!" Maoqiu was originally squatting on his father's shoulder. After entering the house and seeing Shisan Niang, his little black eyes suddenly lit up. He really wanted to go up and rub against her, and even spread out his short little wings. Since he parted with Ivy, he hasn't seen something so soft and fluffy for a long time and missed her very much!
Thirteenth Niang was amused and stretched out her hand towards it.
Furball immediately jumped over happily, "Chirp!"
"Hey!" Oliver wanted to catch him but failed. He watched his son fly through the air and felt a little embarrassed.
Shisan Niang didn't take it seriously and said with a smile, "Is this the Phoenix?"
"Madam, you are laughing." Asher said, "You are still too young and not very sensible."
"It's rare for such a furry little thing to be sensible." Shisan Niang rubbed the fur ball's head, stood up and said, "Please take a seat, everyone."
"Chirp." The fur ball spread out its paws in satisfaction.
The secret guard's heart was filled with tears. He was truly worthy of being the Young Palace Master, and his level was really different.
He actually pounced on it and rubbed it, and we didn't even dare to look at it.
The gap couldn't be more obvious!
Before this meeting, both parties were a little unsure about what would happen. But no one expected that the awkward situation would be resolved in this way. Servants filed in and brought various foods. Shisan Niang asked, "Phoenixes feed on morning dew, but we didn't prepare it in a hurry. I wonder if flower dew can be used instead?"
"No need." Oliver said, "As long as it's not bones, you can feed it anything. It's easy to raise."
"Really?" Shisan Niang didn't believe it and casually scooped a spoonful of snow lotus meat soup.
Furball ate with great joy.
Shisan Niang laughed, "You really are not picky about food." Then she looked up at her son, "It's much easier to raise than your thing."
Liancheng Guyue: ...
"I wonder what the young master is raising?" Shen Qianfeng asked.
Shen Xiaoshou said silently in his heart, chanting Wushuang.
Smart thumbs up.
Liancheng Guyue clapped his hands twice, and in a moment a huge white snow direwolf came in from outside the house.
Oliver was surprised, but he wasn't afraid at all - in fact, as long as Asher was around, he was rarely afraid of anything.
The snow wolf had shiny fur and pupils as green as deep black jade. It was standing in the middle of the room, looking warily at the strangers in front of it.
"Chirp." Furball squatted beside the table and barked at it.
The direwolf stared at it.
The fur ball spreads its small wings, and the little black bean eyes are proud of it, it is so majestic!
Snow Wolf: ...
As a domineering ancient divine bird, Maoqiu jumped off the table, twisted and walked to the direwolf, raised his head and chirped.
The snow wolf walked around it without even looking around and crouched at Liancheng Guyue's feet.
... Maoqiu was deeply shocked and ran to Shisan Niang's arms and hid himself feeling aggrieved.
I just want to play together.
"Look what you are raising!" Thirteenth Mother glared at her son.
Liancheng Guyue: ...
What does this have to do with me!
"Thank you, ma'am, for your hospitality." The atmosphere was a little awkward, so Shen Xiaoshou had to come out to smooth things over.
The secret guard applauded silently in his heart, Madam, well done!
"Young master, you're welcome." Thirteenth Niang looked at him with a smile, "I had only heard about him in rumors before, but now I see him, he really doesn't look like a mortal."
Oliver was smiling, looking cute and lovable, as if he had just stepped out of a painting! For middle-aged women, this product should not be too lethal! So after a meal, Thirteenth Niang deliberately left Oliver behind and ate another snack before letting him go, and she was very reluctant to part with him.
As soon as Liancheng Guyue entered the courtyard, he saw his mother instructing the cook to stew some snow frogs for Ling'er tomorrow.
"Ling'er?" Liancheng Guyue was a little surprised, how could he be called so affectionately.
"Any objections?" Shisan Niang raised her eyebrows.
Liancheng Guyue said, "I'm just a little surprised."
"More than twenty years ago, I met his mother once. I remember that she had a good personality and was very cheerful." Thirteenth Mother said, "Originally, we had a chance to be sisters, but it's a pity that I followed you later. When dad came here, he lost contact with everyone. "
Liancheng Guyue fell silent after hearing this. According to the rules of the Liancheng clan, in order to protect the snow mountain from being disturbed, if a foreign woman wanted to marry in, she had to swear never to contact the outside world again. This was also one of his concerns. According to Yin Wushuang's personality, he would never accept such a request. Besides, even if he agreed, she would not be willing to lock him up in this snow mountain for the rest of his life.
"What are you doing?" Thirteenth Niang was displeased.
"...I came here to ask mother what her impression is of Shen Qianfeng and his party." Liancheng Guyue came to his senses, "If mother agrees, I will discuss the next plan with them tomorrow."
"If I object, will you listen?" asked Shisan Niang.
Liancheng Guyue shook his head.
"Then why bother asking." Shisan Niang sat back on the couch.
"Mother is not an unreasonable person." Liancheng Guyue said.
"Stop wearing a high hat on me." Thirteenth Niang raised her eyebrows lazily, "It's useless even if you wear one."
"If mother really objected, Oliver would not have been left here today." Liancheng Guyue said, "As the master of the Liancheng clan, I naturally know what to do and what not to do. Even if I agree to help, I will definitely not let Xueshan suffer any losses, mother can rest assured about this."
"Since I have made up my mind, I can't control you." Thirteenth Niang waved her hand, "Go ahead and discuss the next step and then tell me."
Liancheng Guyue nodded, turned around and left the room. Hongmian came out of the inner room and said, "Sister, is this considered a promise?"
"So what if I don't agree?" Thirteenth Niang said, "Lone Yue has already taken over the charge of the entire family, how can I interfere in everything."
"Actually, this is a good thing." Hongmian said, "Dealing with Zhou Jue will indeed benefit the Liancheng clan, and Gu Yue will also be relieved of a lot of worries. As for the Wuxue Clan, it won't be too late to deal with it after this matter is over."
Thirteenth Niang was thoughtful and said no more.
