Chapter 67 Dowry

Zhu Manzhi checked and confirmed that Xu Buling was fine, she was still a little confused:

"Why didn't you hit you... Did my father tell you nothing?"

Xu Buling said seriously: "I said that, I have a good review of me. I will take good care of you in the future. When I return to Suzhou, I will get the marriage done and give him a grandson as soon as possible."

!!

Zhu Manzhi's face turned red in an instant, and she shook her head quickly, not believing in any way:

"Impossible, my father loves me, and if he doesn't care about the matter, my mother will definitely not dare to marry me... Even if she gets married, she may just be so casual. She has to say to me in advance... Mr. Xu, you must be fooling me, so I won't be fooled..."

Xu Buling pushed the sword box to Zhu Manzhi and said seriously:

"My Xiao Manzhi is so smart, how could he lie to you? I call your father-in-law, your father agreed and drank it toast. This is a betrothal gift for the Zhu family, and your father asked me to bring it to you."

"I don't believe it..."

Zhu Manzhi still shook his head: "My father is a contemporary sword saint. He won't marry a daughter so casually. I haven't agreed yet..." As he said that, he set his eyes on the sword box in front of him, slid open the sword box, revealing the long sword placed in the brocade cloth. The shape is simple but not lacking in grandeur. Before he was unsheathed, he could feel the thickness accumulated by the years and the sharpness of the sword itself.

Zhu Manzhi's messy thoughts suddenly disappeared, his eyes were shiny, he picked up the sword in the box and looked at it:

"What a beautiful sword, what's the name?"

"Zhanlu, cast by famous craftsmen in spring and autumn, is the leader of the five famous swords. It is even more courageous than the one in my hand. It was originally the treasure of the Cao family in Junshan. The Cao family is not worthy of taking this sword again after leaving the world. I gave it to me last night."

!!!

Zhu Manzhi was a little nervous and trepidated. He quickly put the sword back and said weakly: "It seems that he has heard it from Mr. Storytelling... It's a bit too big..."

Xu Buling curled the corners of his mouth: "Do you want it?"

“…”

Zhu Manzhi showed a little twisted, obviously feeling that the weight was too heavy, and her father was almost the same as holding it. But this famous sword that is well-known in the world is too tempting for Manzhi, who has been listening to books all year round. He hesitated for a long time before he spoke shyly:

"This...is so sorry..."

Xu Buling sighed: "It's better not to like it, I just happened to send Xiao Ning..."

"no!"

Zhu Manzhi suddenly became anxious. She met Xu Buling first, and her own sister settled the score clearly. How could she let this matter be. She quickly hugged the sword box in her arms and said nervously:

"Xiao Ning has his own sword, but if there is too much, I can't use it... I have learned swords, and I haven't found a suitable one... Can I learn kung fu, I can use it sooner or later... Thank you Mr. Xu."

Xu Buling nodded in full eyes: "This is a betrothal gift. Miss Meng has thought about it, and she can't regret it if she accepts it."

Zhu Manzhi's little face froze, holding the sword box, he refused to let go, but he didn't know how to respond.

Xu Buling shook his head and raised his hand to take the sword box over: "It's better to send it to Xiao Ning, she will definitely agree..."

"No, no, I agree... It's obviously something I gave me..."

Zhu Manzhi was a little embarrassed, and muttered a few words in his arms, then stopped talking.

Xu Buling looked at his wife who had not passed the door, raised his hand and pinched her face, and continued to eat buns.

Zhu Manzhi was already full, and the baby seemed to hold the sword box. He recalled the conversation with Ning Qingye just now and asked again:

"Mr. Xu, Qingye just said, when you were in Chang'an, you treated her, um... just because you took advantage of her, isn't it true?"

Xu Buling raised his eyes and glanced at her: "What? He learned to be jealous before he even passed the door?"

Zhu Manzhi's face turned red and she was a little embarrassed and annoyed: "How could it be? I'm curious and asked, I'm not Mrs. Lu..."

“???”

"whee……"

Zhu Manzhi lowered his head weakly, thought for a while, took out a few copper coins and placed them on the table, and ran away quickly...

--------

The boat was quiet, and the maid and guards began to clean up and prepared to set sail for the next stop.

Mrs. Lu had not recovered from what happened the night before. She hid in the house and did not go out of the door. Xu Buling never asked until she returned all night. She probably couldn't recover if she didn't hide for half a month. Zhongli Jiujiu continued to form a relationship with Xiao Xianger to plan a plan to acquire disciples. Knowing that Da Ning didn't like her, she consciously hid far away and did not get involved.

Ning Yuhe knew how powerful the women on the boat were, so she didn't dare to run over and let people see. After returning to the boat, she ran back to the house quietly and closed the door.

Ning Qingye was cold and taciturn on weekdays. When he arrived at the master who was regarded as his closest relative, he did not look too warm. However, he still had a little closer look in his eyes. He poured a cup of tea in the house and handed it to Ning Yuhe:

"Master, I heard you were injured a few days ago. Have you recovered?"

Ning Yuhe's injury on her shoulder was not healed, but she was stabbed for a long time last night and the injury was obviously worse. She almost forgot the soreness of her shoulders. She remembered when she heard Ning Qingye's words.

Ning Yuhe rubbed her shoulders with the flow, and the fatigue on her cheeks was no longer hidden, and she said softly:

"I was slapped by the Ghost Queen, just a minor injury, it's okay."

"I'll take a look..."

Ning Qingye sat in front of him, raised his hand and wanted to untie Ning Yu's skirt.

Ning Yuhe was panicked. She lost the gongshu sand, and the removal was exposed. She hurriedly held the apprentice's hand:

"Qingye, I'm really fine... Zhongli Jiujiu showed me that she is a doctor and should be cured in a few days."

Speaking of Zhongli Jiujiu, Ning Qingye remembered the serious matter and frowned:

"By the way, Master, why are you with Ye Jiuniang? Have you forgotten what she did back then? Just like a crazy woman, I agreed to see her and beat her once..."

Ning Yuhe has never had a good impression of Zhongli Jiujiu. She found a topic to be discussed and said softly:

"I also want to drive her away, but that crazy woman, I don't know if she has changed her temperament, has calmed down a lot now. Moreover, she has a high level of attainment in medicine. Xu Bulingting believes in her, and Mrs. Lu and Miss Xiang'er are even more fond of her. Seeing that she has not done anything wrong, I can only let her go first."

Ning Qingye's expression was serious: "The country is easy to change, but the nature is difficult to change. Ye Jiuniang uses any means to achieve her goal and will definitely not change her temperament. Do you know Zhongli Chuchu?"

"Of course I know that her apprentice has just become the eight masters."

Ning Qingye sighed: "I heard from Zhongli Jiujiu that Ye Jiuniang still did not give up after being expelled from the Central Plains and wanted to compete with her master. She couldn't compare with Bakui, so she thought about comparing her disciples, and specially trained Zhongli Chuchu to what she is now. Fortunately, Zhongli Chuchu is not as unbearable as Ye Jiuniang, and escaped from her clutches..."
