Longevity: Starting From Getting Down The Mountain And Marrying A Wife

Chapter 179 Hard Work Pays Off Continuous Binding

Bell Mansion, the First Courtyard, and the Great Hall of Discussion.

After receiving the notice, the family members of the mansion came one after another, including Ding Zhan, Xiaoqin and other qualified guards and maids.

Originally, everyone was very happy to know that the master's injury had improved and he could get out of bed and walk around so quickly.

But when entering the main hall, seeing Zhong Yan at the top with a gloomy face, and a group of people kneeling in the middle of the hall, they immediately restrained their expressions and did not dare to make a sound, and each stood upright.

Jiang Huan, who bowed her head and stood beside Zhong Yan, her pretty face was tense, and she blamed herself endlessly.

She shouldn't have suggested that her husband come out, and even bumped into Sister Ping having conflicts with others. If Sister Ping was punished because of this, she would be too regretful.

"Husband, it's all here."

Yan Sandao said, and also stood aside.

Zhong Yan looked around the hall and said with a sneer, "I'm just injured, and you guys are making such a fuss. If I'm bedridden, wouldn't the world be turned upside down?!"

"Please master (uncle) calm down! I (servant) know my mistake!" Jiang Ping, Yang Liu'er and others buried their heads and shouted in unison.

"Xiaoqing, you are the old man of Zhongfu. I don't know that fighting in private is strictly prohibited, is it hurtful?"

"Or are you relying on your status as Mrs. Ping's personal maid, bullying the weak and bullying her?"

"Let me say it again!"

Xiaoqing trembled, and slightly raised her head to look at Jiang Ping.

Zhong Yan shouted: "Look what Jiang Ping is doing! She instructed you to do it?"

Jiang Ping raised his head in disbelief and said, "My lord, I was beaten by my concubine!"

"oh?"

Zhong Yan was surprised for a moment, his face softened a little, and he asked, "Why?"

Jiang Ping pursed his lips, then lowered his head again.

Zhong Yan smiled angrily: "Okay, I can't speak well now! It seems that the matter is bigger than I imagined, Xiaoqing, forgive your innocence, tell me everything!"

Xiaoqing hesitated a little, his brain quickly turned to organize his words, and he raised his head and said, "Yes, master!"

"Master, you are injured, Madam is worried all day long, can't sleep or eat, and is getting more and more haggard..."

"Yesterday, Madam didn't drink a drop of water all day, and said she had no appetite. The maidservant was afraid that Madam would be overwhelmed, so she ordered the kitchen to prepare medicinal meals."

"But from early in the morning to noon, nothing happened, so the servant went to the kitchen in person. After careful questioning, she didn't do anything at all. It happened that the three of Xiao'e were present, and she sneered at the servant. The catastrophe has seriously injured you, master."

"The slaves were so angry that they argued a few words, then they pushed and beat the slaves. The slaves remembered Madam's teachings and only protected themselves, but never fought back..."

"Afterwards, Xiaoqin invited Madam, Madam was in charge of the servants, and asked who made the first move, so she slapped Xiao'e across the face."

"Everything that the servant said is true!"

After a pause, Xiaoqing straightened up and said: "Master, Madam didn't say anything because Madam felt guilty and felt that you were robbed and seriously injured. I don't want these little things to disturb your mood and affect your healing and recovery."

But Yang Liuer, who was arguing with Jiang Ping at that time, was not mentioned at all.

Zhong Yan looked at the maid in the mansion: "Xiaoqin, who is in charge of the three of them, Xiao'e?"

Xiaoqin hurriedly came out and knelt down and said, "Reporting to Master, it's... from Mrs. Liu'er's courtyard."

Yang Liu'er wiped her forehead with a flick of her sleeve, and hurriedly said, "Yes...it's because I'm not strict with myself."

Zhong Yan looked at her and said, "You should be punished for talking about the mistress behind her back! Why are you arguing with Mrs. Ping? Do you also think that Ping'er hurt me?"

"I know I'm wrong!"

Zhong Yan snorted and glanced at the concubines: "If it were any of you, I would have rescued you under the circumstances. What does this have to do with Mrs. Ping?"

"It's time to be robbed. Could it be that if Mrs. Ping doesn't follow, the thieves won't do it? Absurd!"

After a pause, Zhong Yan looked at Xiaoqing again, seeming to remember something: "This time? Xiaoqing, could it be that you are often made things difficult by other servants?"

Xiaoqing lay on the ground silently.

"Forget it on weekdays, since I bumped into you, tell me, no matter who bullies you, today I will be the master for you, bullying people for no reason, the Zhongfu does not allow such a bad atmosphere!"

Xiaoqing struggled for a while, gritted her teeth, stood up abruptly and raised her finger to Yang Liuer.

"It's her! Mrs. Liu'er from the Li Mansion!"

Jiang Ping's complexion changed, and he reprimanded in a low voice: "Xiaoqing!"

Xiaoqing looked up and said: "Master, since Mrs. Liuer lived in the mansion, she often provoked her with words. Relying on your trust in her and entrusting her with important responsibilities, you spoke in a strange way, suppressed and isolated her, embarrassed her, and even indulged her." The subordinates are bullying the slaves!"

As soon as these words came out, the faces of many concubines standing on both sides changed.

Zhong Yan raised his eyebrows: "There is such a thing? Suppression, isolation, who else?"

Facing the eyes of the mistress Jiang Ping, Xiaoqing ignored it, and put on a desperate posture: "Mrs. Ziying, Mrs. He, Mrs. Dongcao from Li's Mansion..."

"Bastard!" Xia He stepped forward and shouted coquettishly, "You're talking nonsense, when will I feel sorry for Eldest Sister!"

bang~

With a loud noise, Zhong Yan slapped the solid wood table into crumbs and powder, and shouted, "I'm not dead yet!"

Jiang Huan, who was next to him, shuddered and subconsciously knelt on the ground with a plop.

There was an uproar in the hall, except for Yuan Ziyi and Yu Qingyao, the concubines of the monks, including Qin Ziyue who hesitated, all knelt down.

"Who else?"

Xiaoqing's face was pale, making the two scratch marks more conspicuous. At this moment, her head was still buzzing, she fell on the ground, and said with a sigh of relief:

"Mrs. Zhizhu, Mrs. Zhilan, and... and Mrs. Baiyu, the fairy master! Recently, she also spoke sarcastically to her, and looked down on her mortal body."

Zhong Yan's brows were filled with anger, "Is there such a thing?"

It was quiet.

It can be said that Yang Liu'er has superb acting skills, she is sweating, shivering, and dare not make a sound.

Liu Ziying, who was trembling, bowed and said, "Uncle, this matter is wronged! I have never excluded Mrs. Ping, and I have never said anything against her!"

Dongcao followed and said, "I don't have a concubine either."

Zhizhu (Zhilan): "Master, please enlighten me!"

Xia He was filled with righteous indignation: "She just grabbed and bit at random!"

Xiaoqing said: "In June and October last year, madam lost two months of animal blood. Madam exchanged points for another one. One mistake and one omission cannot happen twice. There are details in the accounting room, so it is impossible for Madam He not to know."

Hearing this, Xia He's complexion changed, not to mention that she had forgotten about it, and suddenly felt guilty.

Xiaoqing: "Last year during the Chinese New Year, our courtyard was short of charcoal. For such an important festival, every courtyard has it all. Why is there a lady missing?"

Dongcao didn't change her face: "This is my negligence, but I explained it to my elder sister and made it up."

The big servant girl Xiaoqin hurriedly said: "Yes, master, this servant is clear about this matter. At that time, my servant was delayed by other things, and I forgot it when I turned around."

Xiaoqing was stunned for a while, and continued: "I don't know, my servant accepts the punishment!"

"Although Mrs. Ziying, Mrs. Six, Mrs. Twelfth, and Mrs. Thirteen of Li's Mansion did not mention Madam directly, they are often present when Mrs. Liu Er mocks Madam for no reason."

"The wives don't dissuade you, just let it go, and even other wives are no longer close to your wife. This is exclusion and isolation."

"When I was in Wutong Lane in the early years, there was no such phenomenon. Sister Xiaohuan... Mrs. Huan knew about this matter, please master clearly!"

Zhong Yan let out a heavy breath, so that everyone in the hall could hear clearly.

"On weekdays, the mansion is peaceful and peaceful. I never imagined that the backyard would be so chaotic!"

"If you don't make things difficult, it's not considered suppression? This is cold violence! It's even more hateful!"

"Xia He, what do you have to say?"

Zhong Yan stared at the past, he only instructed Yang Liuer in private.

Xia He's expression was unnatural, unable to refute: "I am a concubine, I am a concubine..."

Zhong Yan snorted coldly, "Ask yourselves, have you ever been jealous of Jiang Ping in your heart? She also comes from Marriage Pavilion. She just stepped into the house too early, and you feel that she is no worse than her. Why can she be superior? Seeing the opportunity, I want to take She pulls it down?"

Xia He: "Master, this concubine knows it's wrong! Big sister, little sister has no such intentions!"

"Cutting off your 'Mrs. He' status, you will be fined for one year, and you will be banned for three months."

Xia He's body softened, and he lost his mind, "Yes, thank you for your forgiveness, my concubine will be punished."

"Gu Baiyu, do you look down on mortals? Are your parents not mortals? Are your ancestors not mortals?"

"I know I'm wrong!"

"From today onwards, your annual salary will be reduced to two spirit stones, and all other benefits will be exempted, just to see the effect."

"yes."

"Yang Liu'er! After getting a Youth-Retaining Pill, she raised her tail to the sky, and didn't take others seriously? You are the culprit in this matter, and for your husband's sake, I pardon your death penalty and get out of Zhongfu!"

Everyone was startled, looked up, then lowered one after another.

Yang Liu'er's face changed drastically, she took a few steps forward, and said anxiously: "Uncle! I know I made a mistake, and I will never dare again! Please don't drive me away, uncle! I wish to atone for my sins! Ping' Er sister! I was wrong!"

Jiang Ping, who was already in tears, wiped the corners of his eyes, and hurriedly said: "Master! This concubine is also at fault. I told you about this earlier, so that there will be no further incidents. It is because my concubine's ability is too low to keep up with the crowd." The steps of the sisters, please see the master for the sake of sister-in-law Liu'er's hard work, and give me a lighter punishment."

Zhong Yan looked indifferent, paused for a moment and said: "Since Ping'er pleaded for you, I will fine you three years of salary, stay in the house for a year of contemplation, business in the city, Dongcao, you arrange someone to take over."

Yang Liuer burst into tears of gratitude: "Yes, thank you Uncle Kuanren, and thank you, Ping'er Sister, a lot!"

Dongcao: "Yes, sir."

"Xiaozhong! Drag these three lowly servant girls who are rebellious and corrupt the harmony of the clan, and put them to death with sticks!"

"yes."

"Master, please spare me! Ma'am, Madam Ping!"

The three people who didn't know the truth gradually went away crying.

Of course it wasn't a real killing, they were instructed by Yang Liu'er to cooperate with the acting, and they paid off the contract of selling their lives to set them free, and the money given was enough for a lifetime of food and clothing.

Needle drop could be heard in the hall.

Zhong Yan got up, looked around and said: "Jiang Ping is my wife, Zhong Yan, and the head of this family! From now on, what she says will be the same as what I said, whoever dares to make a mistake again will not be forgiven! No matter who it is!"

"Yu Qingyao, do you have any opinions?"

Yu Qingyao was startled, why did she still point to me, "Yes!"

He bowed to Jiang Ping and saluted: "Qing Yao has met Mrs. Ping!"

Everyone shouted: "Mrs. Ping!"

Jiang Ping's heart throbbed, he bit his lip and tried his best to hold back the tears that were about to burst out of his eyes, and solemnly returned the gift.

"snort!"

Zhong Yan flicked his sleeves and left, secretly summoning the panel.

Jiang Huan glanced at Jiang Ping and quickly followed.

After walking away, Jiang Huan looked at her husband's face and said cautiously: "Husband, if Sister Dongcao is not punished, it will be unfair and difficult to convince the public? What if she targets her again, and she will bear it..."

"Who dares!"

Zhong Yan curled his lips, and smiled again: "The law does not blame the public. Human hearts are complex, intrigues, and winds of the rudder. There are too many people in the big house and courtyard, and it is inevitable. If you really want to be punished, if you continue to investigate carefully, how many people will escape?"

Jiang Huan nodded his head, his eyelashes fluttered, and felt that her husband was not as angry as he imagined.

Zhong Yan looked at the motionless system panel, but sighed inwardly.

Jiang Ping is the first woman in his past and present life, and she has unusual feelings and meanings.

He wanted to bind her to give her a good ending, but now the result is helpless, how can he treat her better?

Until the fly landed in the thirty-five yard.

There was a ding sound in my mind.

[It is detected that the wife has a deep-rooted love for the host, surpassing the limit of the common world, and successfully bound. ]

Zhong Yan paused, overjoyed, and scanned the panel again.

[Binding: Daoist Yu Qingyao (33/100), wife Jiang Ping (24/63), concubine Yan Sandao (23/77) ]

If it is not bound, Jiang Ping's normal lifespan is really not long.

Zhong Yan blinked and thought to himself: After calming down, he built a strategy for himself?

Immediately afterwards.

Another sound came.

[It is detected that the Taoist couple has a deep-rooted love for the host, surpassing the limit of the common world, and successfully bound. ]

who is this

Zhong Yan was shocked and looked intently.

[Binding: Taoist Yu Qingyao (33/100), Taoist Jianghuan (19/136), wife Jiang Ping (24/63), concubine Yan Sandao (23/77) ]

Jianghuan! Before stepping into the practice, the life span exceeds the limit of ordinary Qi Refining perfect monks!

Zhong Yan was dizzy, looked at the beauty next to her, saw a slight smile on the corner of her mouth, and couldn't help asking: "Huan'er, what happy things did you think of?"

"No, seeing her husband is happy, and Huan'er is also in a good mood."

After a pause, her beautiful eyes flickered and said: "Husband, you were in the hall earlier, you are so handsome!"

"handsome?"

"Don't you know? Handsome refers to a man who is particularly handsome, or wise and powerful. In short, it is a compliment. I learned it from sister Xia He, and she said she learned it from you!"

Zhong Yan nodded thoughtfully.

Jiang Huan and Jiang Ping have a deep relationship, like mother and daughter, like sisters.

Her attitude towards Jiang Ping also affected Jiang Huan to a certain extent, making her more convinced that she was the kind of person worthy of entrustment?

Either way, it's a big surprise!

"Huan'er, the blood essence of the monster bought in the market has not yet been refined. In a few days, it will be refined for you and let you start practicing."

Jiang Huan nodded, pursed his lower lip and said hesitantly: "Husband, as long as I can be with you, it doesn't matter if Huan'er doesn't practice. Otherwise, don't waste resources on me. Maybe Huan'er's qualifications are not good enough to let you Have fun."

Zhong Yan rubbed his head with a smile, "I said, no matter what the price is, I will let you step into the practice, and we will ask for longevity together!"

Jiang Huan looked at each other with scorching eyes for a moment, and suddenly shyness appeared on his stunningly pretty face, and he leaned forward into the man's arms.

"Husband..."

"What's wrong?"

"Huan'er...want to learn knowledge." The voice was so low that it sounded extremely shy.

learn knowledge?

I'm good at lectures!

Just to see the effect after binding!

Zhong Yan laughed loudly, embraced them, and entered the room.

a long time.

The wind and rain suddenly stopped.

[Five elements spiritual root bonus +10000, practice progress +500, spell bonus +3000]

Zhong Yan's eyes are straightened, and the spiritual root bonus has soared to 10,000. This is the rhythm for me to dominate the Xianwu Continent!

At the same time, he confirmed one thing, the binding has nothing to do with the speed of time, only the difference between mortals and immortals.

Seeing her husband's expression, Jiang Huan on the side thought that he was doing a good job in serving her, so she smiled like a flower and slipped into her arms.

"Husband, are you tired?"

Zhong Yan was stunned.

Boy, is this addicting?

Enough must be given!
