Chapter 9: Meng Tang is a Fake Jianghu(1/2)
Jiang Buchen's family dinner was held in a boat pavilion by the water. Jiangnan people prefer gardens. If they didn't know that Wugou Villa is located in Jianghu, ordinary people would just think they were entering the home of a wealthy family in Jiangnan.
There is a clear and shallow small pond with curved railings, and the bright moon shines on people as they move.
Shen Yuning had only one emotion along the way: "This Wugou Villa is really rich!"
"Who says it's not the case!" Bai Yu was also filled with envy.
As soon as he arrived at the door of the back garden, he met Meng Linxiao coming towards him. Shen Yuning saw that he was still in rich clothes and leading two exquisite and handsome young men in white. Looking at her own rough and short shirt, Bai Yu was even more rough, and she couldn't help but feel a little bit.
Worried about whether you are holding back the Wulin Alliance?
Bai Yu seemed to have guessed what she was thinking, and whispered: "Leader, don't worry too much, he walks in the rivers and lakes without sticking to the rules. He doesn't look like a person in the rivers and lakes at all!"
With Bai Yu's words, Shen Yuning instantly felt that she was much taller in front of the fake Jianghu Meng Linxiao.
"What a coincidence, Sect Leader Meng!"
"Unfortunately, this sect master is waiting for you."
Shen Yuning could barely hold on to her dry smile: "Wait, wait for me?"
The man raised his hand, and a young man in white clothes stepped forward and placed a delicate white porcelain box in his hand.
"Miss Qin hurt one of your men today. This medicine should be used by our sect to make amends for her. I hope the leader of the alliance will accept it."
"It's just a box of wound medicine, the sect leader would have to..."
Before he finished speaking, Bai Yu had already taken the medicine into his hand with one quick step: "Thank you so much, sect master. The sect master is so generous. He is worthy of being the Yue Yue Sect that controls the northern trade routes! It is simply admirable!"
Shen Yuning: "..."
What about the fake world that we promised!
Meng Linxiao made a gesture of invitation: "Leader of the Alliance?"
"Sect Master please."
The two of them entered the moon cave door leading to the waterside pavilion together. Shen Yuning tried to step on Bai Yu's feet several times along the way, but he perfectly avoided them.
"Leader, this is Liuguang Cream!" Bai Yu whispered in her ear: "The black market in Shuijing City can sell it for eight hundred taels!"
Shen Yuning looked at him in shock: So many?
"As the saying goes, if you are always wandering in the rivers and lakes, you will have to go under the knife, but if you get the radiant ointment, you will know that there will be no scars!"
After a long time of trouble, it’s just a scar removal cream?
But he, Meng Linxiao, a grown-up man, actually carries a box of scar removal cream with him when he goes out?
It is indeed a fake world!
Jiang Buchen of Wugou Villa had already prepared wine and food in the waterside pavilion. Seeing the two of them coming side by side, the father and son hurriedly greeted them.
Jiang Xiaogu even trotted a few steps with a happy face: "Leader! We meet again!"
The latter nodded and looked it up and down.
Jiang Xiaogu was still a child when the "Incomplete Statistical Illustrated Book of Heroes of Jianghu" was revised, and there was only a description of him as tall, thin and honest.
Now after many years...it seems like nothing has changed?
"I've been away from the villa for some time recently. It's rude of me that I didn't entertain you personally when I came to the villa! Leader, what's your habit of living in the villa these days? Is there anything you want to eat, drink or play? I'll definitely be very considerate!
"
Shen Yuning said politely: "What the young village master said, the village master is warm and thoughtful, and has everything you need. This alliance leader is almost happy to miss Shu."
"That's good! That's good!" Jiang Xiaogu was excited: "Alliance leader, please!"
Jiang Buchen quickly added: "My son, this is the leader of the Tianyue Sect, Meng."
Jiang Xiaogu changed his face instantly, glanced coldly at the leader of the Yue Sect, and said sarcastically: "Is it possible that the people you invited also want me to entertain them?"
Dang's father had a stern look on his face and scolded in a low voice: "Don't be rude!"
"Isn't it rude? Not to mention that the Tianyue Sect and our martial arts alliance are incompatible, but that my son, as a disciple of Hengshan, has been feuding with the Tianyue Sect for a long time. My father actually invited such an old enemy for his own selfish gain. My son really doesn't know what to say.
Are you smart or stupid?"
"you!"
Being ridiculed by his son in front of the guests, Jiang Buchen did not dare to get angry with his son, so he had to persuade him: "As the saying goes, it is better to dissolve enemies than to make them. Now that the alliance leader and the sect leader have fallen in love with each other at first sight, it is a good thing for the whole world.
After all, is it possible that you still want to disobey the alliance leader?"
Jiang Xiaogu was shocked: "Leader? Seriously?"
"Ah?" Shen Yuning didn't know how to reply to him for a while. Did she want to tell the truth that she had only spoken a handful of words to this 'old friend'?
"us……"
"Fake." Sect Master Meng interrupted her and went straight into the waterside pavilion.
Jiang Xiaogu clenched his fists angrily: "What does he have to be proud of! He is just relying on the snobbery of the Northwest King!"
Jiang Buchen clasped his hands and said to his son: "Little ancestor, leave some way for your father to survive. He is still counting on Sect Master Meng to open up the Junbei trade route!"
"My son is a member of the martial arts world! I can't bear to see you businessmen who are just profit-seekers! Stop begging me!"
After saying this, he made an invitation gesture and invited Shen Yuning to come in very enthusiastically.
She could only smile at Jiang Buchen, who also looked embarrassed.
Jiang Buchen prepared a table full of good wine, meat and delicacies, and also invited musicians to enhance the atmosphere.
Unexpectedly, just after he sat down, Jiang Xiaogu started shouting again: "How can we do it with music but no dancing? Ask the dancer to come up and dance."
"Okay, okay, it's all up to you." Jiang Buchen smiled shyly and went to arrange the dancer.
When the dancers filed in, Jiang Xiaogu immediately showed his courtesy to Shen Yuning: "Alliance leader!"
Shen Yuning raised her glass and stopped him: "Young Master?"
Jiang Xiaogu said: "I wonder if the leader of the alliance can take the "Book of Legacy of the Late Emperor" with him? Why don't you let me pay my respects in advance?"
"Is the Young Master so sure of winning the final competition?"
"I'm not sure if the alliance leader takes action, but since the alliance leader won't take action in this martial arts conference, this "The Legacy of the Former Emperor" is my, Jiang Xiaogu's, in my pocket!"
"Xiaogu!" Jiang Buchen said hurriedly: "How many times have my father told you that the most important thing to avoid in life is to be proud and complacent? You haven't even reached the Mingjin Platform yet and you are so complacent? No!"
"Can you shut up while I'm talking to the alliance leader and just wait until I win the martial arts tournament to celebrate for me!"
"You!" Jiang Buchen looked helplessly and looked at Meng Tang with a look of shame: "My son has been spoiled by me. He said some shameless words and please don't laugh at Sect Leader Meng."
"It's better not to have such a son." Meng Tang drank a glass of wine and glanced at Shen Yuning from the corner of his eye. When he saw that she was having a lively conversation with Jiang Xiaogu, he could not help but tighten his eyebrows slightly.
"Sect Leader Meng, Alliance Leader Shen," Jiang Buchen stood up and poured wine for the two of them personally: "Jiang never expected that the clan leader would be able to meet the alliance leader as before. When he invited the clan leader to come to Wugou Villa, Jiang kept it secret from Wulin.
Alliance, now it seems that this is the heart of a villain named Jiang, please drink this cup to the full, and we will all be friends in the future!"
Shen Yuning picked up the wine cup and said with a smile: "Shen has countless friends in the world. It doesn't matter if there is one more or one less. I just don't know if Master Qian Yue likes to make friends."
"If it were you, it wouldn't be impossible."
Meng Tang's words were a bit unexpected. Jiang Buchen was overjoyed when he heard it. He drank it all in one gulp and hurriedly served the dishes for the two of them.
"Since we are friends, Jiang needs to be honest. Jiang has a batch of goods in Beiyue City that he wants to transport to Tianque Mountain before midsummer. Of course, Jiang knows the rules on the road, but with the wars in recent years,
Wugou Villa is also unable to make ends meet, I wonder if Sect Master Meng can do something convenient?"
Jiang Xiaogu snorted coldly and drank the wine in one gulp: "This old man knows how to do business all day long, and his eyes are full of money! He ignored the righteousness of my martial arts and actually showed his favor to the Yue Yue Sect!"
Shen Yuning glanced at him and laughed in a low voice: "You are the only son of the village owner. The family business earned by the village owner will eventually be passed on to you in the future."
"I don't care!" Jiang Xiaogu said with a smile: "Leader, please tell me the truth, your martial arts are so high, have you practiced the superior martial arts in the "Book of the Late Emperor"?"
"No," Shen Yuning shook his head: "To tell you the truth, although I have seen it, I can't understand it. I think it must be someone who is destined to understand it."
Jiang Xiaogu was overjoyed: "This treasure is indeed a treasure! If everyone can understand it, it won't be a treasure!"
"That's right! If the young master gets the "Book of the Former Emperor" and realizes something mysterious in the future, please don't hesitate to teach me."
"Easy to say, easy to say! Hahaha!"
Jiang Xiaogu laughed loudly with pride, while Jiang Buchen, who was talking to Meng Tang over there, shook his head helplessly.
Jiang Xiaogu was in a good mood until the banquet was over, and seemed to be determined to obtain the "Book of Legacy of the Late Emperor".
After leaving the boat pavilion near the water, Jiang Xiaogu wanted to send Shen Yuning back to the small courtyard, but his men hurriedly came to report what they had said, and Jiang Xiaogu's expression changed.
"Alliance leader, please forgive me for having important matters. I will go and apologize to the alliance leader tomorrow."
"It's okay," Shen Yuning said with a smile: "Young Master, if you have anything to do, just go and do it."
"good!"
After saying this, he glanced at his father and the leader of the Yueyue Sect, and left in a hurry.
Shen Yuning winked at Bai Yu, who understood. The two were about to leave in a hurry when they heard Meng Tang calling someone from behind.
"Why did the leader leave in such a hurry?"
"Ah?" Shen Yuning laughed dryly: "It's rare to encounter good weather. I, the alliance leader, thought that enjoying the night view of Wugou Villa would not be in vain! Isn't that right, Bai Yu?"
