Chapter Eighty-two Just Wanting to Pamper Her

  In the pitch-black private room, Xiao Yuanqiu stood silently in front of the window, gazing out at the dark night outside, his hand gently swaying a jade fan that also seemed to carry a sense of solemnity.

  What happened?

  Xiao Yimeng stood behind him, frowning and staring at his back.

  Uncle Ling said, "If there's nothing big happening here, you should head back to the valley as soon as possible." Xiao Yuanqiu didn't turn around, still gazing out at the silent and eerie city shrouded in night.

  Did Brother Qiu not hear my question clearly? Xiao Yimeng walked to the edge of the table and sat down. Although he also wanted to leave early, that woman was currently unable to extricate herself.

  Yeah, it should be a serious matter. Uncle Ling said that if you go back and stay under their noses, they might do something sooner or later. Xiao Yuanqiu didn't know who the "they" in Uncle Ling's words referred to, but he vaguely saw that his expression was more serious than ever when he said this.

  Xiao Yimou's eyebrows were knotted together, and she remained silent for a long time before opening her mouth to ask: "Brother Qiu, what you're worried about isn't this matter, is it?"

  Xiao Yuanqiu turned back: How did you know?

  You think we've known each other for a few days? If it's just about what Father said, you shouldn't be worried at all, but rather excited. No matter who wants to do something, they can't pose any threat to us. Xiao Yimeng raised an eyebrow and poured himself a cup of tea that had long gone cold.

  Yes, indeed! Xiao Yuanqiu let out a sigh of frustration and walked over to sit beside him from the window.

  Tell me, what's wrong? Xiao Yimou's lips curled up slightly, revealing a faint smile that seemed to be there and yet not there at the same time. There was only one thing that could make Autumn Brother so worried.

  Xiao Yuanqiu rapidly fanned herself with her jade fan, feeling stifled and annoyed.

  "Autumn brother, at this time of year, if you keep blowing strongly like that, you might get sick." Xiao Yi Mo's voice was tinged with a hint of laughter.

  You guessed it? Xiao Yuanqiu's mouth twitched, how could he always be so quick to get out of his own affairs?

  Xiao Yi Mo held his tea cup and remained silent. If he had said that he had guessed the general idea, he was afraid that he would not have continued speaking.

  Xiao Yuan sighed heavily and said: My father said that after your marriage is settled, he will let me go to the Xia family to meet the woman who will become my wife in the future.

  Oh? Just a meeting? I thought they would let you go straight to the interview. Xiao Yimeng spoke calmly, just a meeting, why did Autumn brother become so troubled.

  It's not about meeting, the problem is that no one has been appointed as Miss Xia, so I have to choose a satisfactory one among many Miss Xia. Xiao Yuanqiu did not expect his father to make such a decision, nor did he expect the Xia family to agree. Originally, if only one person was engaged, he would definitely be able to let go of the idea of marrying him, but if it's against many people, there is no guarantee at all.

  This is not arrogance, all along, whether walking in the rivers and lakes or staying in the valley, there have always been countless women who want to follow themselves, dreaming of becoming their own wife.

  And if you face many young ladies from the Xia family but don't find any of them to your liking, I'm afraid it will lead to dissatisfaction from the Xia family.

  "Qiū Gē, why do you dislike marriage so much? Xiāo Yí Mò had never asked him this question before. After all, his past self was also like that - no matter who it was, as long as they mentioned the topic of marriage in front of him, he would immediately run away."

  "Hmm, as for why... there's no particular reason, it's just that I don't want to inexplicably end up marrying someone I completely dislike and don't understand. Xiao Yuanqiu slowed down his fanning, along with his question, who is the serious person? Can you find him?"

  Xiao Fu furrowed his brow and thought for a moment: That guest has been coming to the wine tower frequently, either in the afternoon or at night.

  So, if he comes today, Uncle Fu will have someone notify me at Mingyue Tower. Even if he doesn't come today, if he comes in the future, I'll still be notified. Su Xiaofan suddenly felt that it might be possible to make Xingyuelou disappear even faster.

  Alright, don't worry, young lady. Xiao Fu wasn't clear why she suddenly became so agitated after hearing him, but since she was so anxious, he would definitely pay attention to that customer.

  After arriving at Mingyuelou, Su Xiaofan was busy in the kitchen with a heavy heart.

  After a long time, he put down the things in his hand and looked at the kitchen, where a group of people seemed to be more worried than himself. He walked up to Ji Yun's side and asked: "Ji Yun Shifu, what's wrong with them today?"

  I suppose everyone is still concerned about what happened at Xingyuelou yesterday, Xiaofan, don't take it to heart. Ji Yun casually swept a glance around the kitchen, and he himself wasn't very concerned, after all, although they came to cause trouble, there were still many guests today, and it didn't have much of an impact on Mingyuelou at all.

  It was noon, the busiest time of day, and Xiao Yimiao was bored and leaning on the counter. He thought that Xingyuelou, who had caused trouble yesterday, would come again today, but after waiting for a whole morning, there wasn't even a bit of noise.

  Mo Ge, what are you thinking? Xiao Yuanfeng leaned in close to his ear and asked in a low voice.

  I didn't think of anything, I'm waiting for those who come to make trouble. Xiao Yimeng propped up his head with one hand, and his eyes looked faintly at the outside of the wine house door. At this time, customers were constantly walking into the wine house from outside. If the people of Xingyuelou only made a fuss that once, they shouldn't give up like that, should they?

  I'm waiting too. Xiao Yuanfeng also looked out with his head held high, if those people dared to come and cause trouble today, he would beat them up so badly that they wouldn't dare to come again in the future.

  After waiting for an entire noon without a single movement or sound, Xiao Yimeng let out a sigh and jumped down from the stool, lifting his feet into the kitchen.

  Deng Nai hadn't heard the conversation between the two beforehand, but occasionally caught a few soft sighs coming from Xiao Yimiao's mouth. Seeing that he had left, he approached Xiao Yuanfeng and asked: "This young master, what is troubling him today? Or perhaps there's something we haven't done thoroughly enough?"

  Nothing, just nobody came to make trouble, so it's boring. Xiao Yuanfeng raised his eyebrows and smiled.

  Deng Nai remained silent, hoping that they would not come to cause trouble again. Although yesterday's commotion had no impact on the wine house, if it continued, it would inevitably affect the business that had just started to thrive.

  In the evening, it was again the time when there were the most guests. Xiao Yi Mo and Xiao Yuan Feng were sitting in the kitchen, eating the snacks that Su Xiao Fan had prepared for them.

  No, in a sense, it's just a snack prepared for Xiao Yi Mo alone.

  Xiao Yuanfeng is a foodie.

  If you want to eat, then eat; don't stare. Xiao Yi Mo held a piece of pastry in his hand and saw that Xiao Yuan Feng was dazed, staring at the pastries on the plate.

  Later, I will also find a wife who is good at cooking. Mo Ge, you must help me. Xiao Yuanfeng took a piece of pastry and bit into it angrily, but after hearing what his brother said, he felt a little uneasy in his heart. It's said that Yu Shu Ge has been on a hunger strike at home recently because he opposed the marriage arranged by his parents.

  Just thinking about it, I feel that in the future, I will inevitably encounter similar things. Moreover, Yu Shu's words to his parents have always been listened to and followed, so what is the reason for this intense resistance this time?

  Thinking of this, he suddenly looked up and asked: Mo Ge, do you know if Yu Shu Ge has a crush on someone?

  Xiao Yimao shook his head: "Yu Shu has always been a bookworm. Even if he had someone in mind, it would only be someone from the books."

  Right, would he dare to rebel against his parents for someone in a book? Xiao Yuanfeng furrowed his brow, thinking that if his father and grandfather were to go on a hunger strike, they would definitely watch him starve to death without compromising.

  I don't know, you'll find out when you go back later. Otherwise, why not sneak back and bring the Jade Book out? Xiao Yimiao cautiously glanced around, seeing that everyone was busy, no one heard this conversation, so he put his mind at ease. He had told them not to call him "Moge" in front of outsiders, but recently they just couldn't remember, so he found an excuse to send him away.

  What's that called? That's called sneaking out, right? Xiao Yuanfeng vaguely remembered that when he was a child, he often followed Mo Ge's orders and secretly snuck into Yu Shu Ge's house to forcibly take him away from the study filled with books.

  That's right, I'm telling you to go and get him out, he originally had a weak bookworm appearance, thinner than Master by a lot. If he continues to make a fuss about not eating, his body will collapse, and who knows, he might even fall ill and not recover. Xiao Yimeng continued to add fuel to the fire in order to achieve his own goals.

  Xiao Yuanfeng furrowed his brow into a knot after hearing his words.

  Just as Xiao Yimeng was about to continue saying something, a commotion came from outside. Although there were already many customers in the store at this time and it was usually very noisy, but the commotion at this moment was somewhat different from the others.

  Xiao Yuanfeng's eyebrows suddenly relaxed and he smiled as he flashed out like a gust of wind.

  Xiao Yimeng helplessly shook his head, wondering when this nature of being afraid that the world is not chaotic would change. He stood up and blocked Su Xiaofan who was about to leave, saying: "Isn't it time for you to be busy? Just let us handle it, after all, they are just some ordinary shopkeepers, easy to deal with."

  Su Xiaofan hesitated for a moment before nodding slightly: I know, so be careful, you guys.

  At the entrance of the store, Xiao Yuanfeng discontentedly reached into his ear, those few attendants from Xingyuelou were trying to deafen people or what? They were banging those gongs and drums so loudly.

  Xiao Yimeng stood at the entrance of the store, paused for a moment, and asked Deng Nai beside him: "What about the gongs and drums in our wine shop? Bring them all here."

  You guys go and move all the gongs and drums out. Deng Nai didn't know what he specifically wanted to do, but he followed his words anyway.

  Xiao Yimeng took one of the smallest cymbals and handed it to Xiao Yuanfeng: You go, just hit it hard next to those few people's ears for me.

  Xiao Yuanfeng was taken aback for a moment, then smiled and took over, walking past them with his light footwork, extremely quickly knocking on their ears with all his might.

  After it stopped, I felt that the whole world had quieted down. Those people were all covering their ears and crouching on the ground, wailing continuously.

  After a short while, one of them came to his senses and stormed up to Xiao Yuanfeng's face, rebuking: "Do you people from Mingyuelou want to murder someone?"

  "Hey, why so serious? I'm just playing along with you guys and having a little fun. Xiao Yuanfeng stretched out his hand again to dig into his ear, glanced at the crowd standing behind him watching the show, and waved his hand: Everyone, if you're here to eat at Mingyuelou, please go ahead and enter, but if you're here to watch the show, it's going to cost you silver!"

  His response was met with a burst of laughter.

  Xiao Yuanfeng shrugged nonchalantly and said to the few people who seemed to have calmed down: "Let me tell you, if you all come to Mingyuelou every day from now on to make a racket, I'll go to your homes in the middle of the night to make a racket too. I'm really good at it."

  The first person holding the cymbals and drum covered their ears, which were still ringing, and ran back quickly. The rest of them also followed suit.

  That's it? Xiao Yuanfeng let out a sigh.

  Yes, I thought it would be a big deal, but they've all brought them out. Xiao Yimo pointed to the people holding cymbals and drums beside him.

  Deng's mouth twitched as he stood there, these two people were simply little devils. To think that yesterday they came and the boss had to put in a lot of effort just to get rid of them, but today they were so easily dealt with. Wasn't it a bit too easy?

  Deng Nai was still thinking on this side, and a large number of people rushed out from Xingyue Building on the other side, all holding cymbals and drums, walking towards Mingyue Building.

  Xiao Yimò lifted his foot and walked out, saying to the crowd behind Xiao Yuanfeng: Everyone should stand back a bit, this mad dog will bite people when he goes crazy.

  Everyone looked at the little young master standing there with a strange gaze, his face had a mature atmosphere that didn't match his age, even when facing those strong men rushing over, he didn't have a bit of intention to back down, how could these surrounding adults be intimidated and retreat?

  Who did you say is crazy?

  This time the person who rushed over seemed to be much stronger than those before, with a stout body and broad shoulders. One of them could take on the two from earlier. The leader had a ferocious face and glared at Xiao Yimeng.

  Xiao Yi Mo crossed his arms in front of his chest and replied calmly: "Running to other people's shops to cause trouble, what should we call it if not a mad dog? Do you think this city is your Xing Yue Building? You want to make a scene, go ahead?"

  Zhuang Han heard this, was stunned for a moment, pointing to the location of Mingyue Building and said: This is indeed the front door of Mingyue Building, but our standing position is on the street, not your territory of Mingyue Building.

  You dare to provoke us openly, but you don't want others to fight back. Do you think we are soft persimmons that can be pinched at will? Xiao Yuanfeng raised his eyebrows and glared over, thinking that just because he's tall and sturdy, he's impressive? He's all fat and useless, not even worth a finger.

  Xiao Yimeng frowned, turned around and said to Xiao Yuanfeng: "Send them all back to Xingyuelou directly. If anyone else comes over, send them back too."

  The onlookers all thought that the child's words were too astonishing, in their eyes, although the young master holding the drumsticks looked quite formidable, it shouldn't be easy to send those sturdy men back, should it?

  Alright, you're responsible for the consequences. Xiao Yuanfeng dropped the cymbals in his hand, rolled up his sleeves, and with a few quick moves, he sent those strong men who came to cause trouble flying to the front door of Xingyue Tower.

  Wang Yi rushed down from upstairs, looking at the group of people stacked like a pagoda in front of the wine shop door, blowing his beard and glaring with anger, cursing: What a useless bunch.

  Boss, that guy is quite formidable, seems like a martial arts expert. The shopkeeper of Xing Yue Tower appeared behind Wang Yi and gazed at the man who was clapping his hands with ease in front of Ming Yue Tower: Should we also invite some Jianghu people to help us?

  Wang Yi's eyes lit up as soon as he heard the words, wondering why he hadn't thought of asking for help from people in the jianghu before. He had heard that there were such people who would do anything, including killing and arson, as long as they were paid.

  Xiao Yimò turned around at this moment, and with a hint of excitement in his eyes, he silently shook his head. Is this person not going to enter the coffin or shed tears?

  Or is it true that you and Deng Shoucai had a life-and-death feud before?

  After the matter was settled, Deng Shoucai hastily came down from upstairs and looked at Xiao Yuanfeng, saying: "Thank you, sir. It seems that they won't come to make trouble again in the future."

  No, they will come again, and next time they may bring even more trouble. Xiao Yimiao sat down at the counter.

  The crowd of people who were originally watching the excitement on the street also dispersed one after another.

  Deng Shoucai listened to Xiao Yimò's words and walked into the counter with an uneasy expression, asking in a low voice: How did young master find out?

  Judging from his expression, why don't you tell us what kind of grudge or grievance you have with him? Xiao Yi Mo raised an eyebrow and calmly asked, although he could directly go and settle the matter with Wang Yi himself, but also wanted to know the origin of his hatred. If Deng Shou had indeed done something unforgivable to someone, then he couldn't clear his conscience by doing too much.

  After all, the woman's goal was just to bring down Xingyuelou.

  Alas, this all happened many years ago...

  Behind-the-scenes 1

  Some woman: My family doesn't raise idle men, who wants to stay? Get out of here and go pull weeds!

  Passerby A: The abandoned wife of the Yin family had her eyes eaten by dogs. How can such a handsome man as you bear to treat her so cruelly!

  Passerby B: Let go of that clump of grass, Aunt is coming!

  Passerby C: Pitiful sight, good young man, come home with me, there's fish, meat and a warm kang...

  Rumor has it that the favored son is: =.=! Wife, I'll go wash the dishes first! Let's talk about pulling weeds tonight!

  A woman immediately spat out three liters of blood: Pfft, who is your wife?!

  Rumor has it that the second male lead: None of you need to go, Fei Er, I've helped pull out all the weeds in the yard!

  The woman immediately looked towards the courtyard, but only saw that the originally lush vegetable field was now completely bare, and she suddenly fainted and fell to the ground.
