After Miao felt comfortable enough, he told Xia Yunrou everything about the underground palace.

After hearing this, Xia Yunrou felt that the effects of the pool of water and pills were somewhat similar to the pills rewarded by the system.

No wonder Wei Rongchuan can still stay so young for twenty years!

Xiu Miao: "You don't think this thing can keep you young, but Miao always feels a little weird. Maybe there are any sequelae!"

Wei Rongchuan's ferocious look was really terrifying, and it was deeply engraved in Xiu Miao's little mind.

Xia Yunrou didn't care about this thing. If she didn't change at all in twenty years, people wouldn't call her a monster.

During this period, Sparrow installed bugs in the rooms and study rooms of Madam Fuyao and Wei Rongchuan, but no information was heard yet.

She was not in a hurry and kept her baby with peace of mind. Occasionally she and Zhang Shuchuan would go to the shop to give some advice.

The two of them came from modern times, and although they had not done business, they had heard and seen a lot in the era of the modern information explosion.

Although the Zhang family is hard-working, they only have so much knowledge, and many problems they encounter cannot be solved for a while.

So Zhang Shuchuan and Xia Yunrou solved it perfectly with a little guidance.

Since the last time the shopkeeper of the Wang family brought someone to make trouble in the bookstore and was bumped into by the second son of the Wang family, no one has come to make trouble again.

Now the Zhang family has sold a lot of paper to the Wang family at wholesale prices, which has made the Wang family's business much better.

Since the last time Wang Huaize knew that Xia Yunrou was married, he had been a little distracted.

He still had this feeling for a woman, and it was over before it even started.

It wasn't until his fourth uncle, who had been away all year round, came back that he felt much better.

Then he started drinking and drinking tea with a group of pig friends and talking about the gossip of the capital.

This time, the guests were invited by Fang Hongjie, the young master of the Fang family who had recently joined their gang, and they were invited to Lingxiao Tower.

The Fang family's reputation in the capital is not very good. The main reason is that there are many evil servants who have done a lot of evil things. Only after they were found out did the Fang family know about and deal with these evil servants.

Moreover, there were many women in the Fang family's backyard, especially Fang Hongjie's biological father. There were so many women in the backyard. Later, because there were too many to fit in the yard, they stopped collecting them.

Although his son Fang Hongjie also has more, it is not half as much as his father.

Therefore, these two things lead to a bad reputation.

It wasn't until last year's drought and floods that the Fang family was the first to provide disaster relief under the city gate, thus saving a lot of reputation.

It turned out that this group of people looked down on Fang Hongjie.

But he was very wealthy and didn't get angry when he joked. Gradually, everyone felt that this guy Fang Hongjie was pretty good.

In the private room on the fourth floor of Lingxiao Tower, a group of urban dandies were chatting and making trouble.

The table was full of delicacies, but after just one taste, they were taken away.

Fang Hongjie pulled up the corners of his mouth hard and said generously: "Everyone, please feel free, I'll pay for everything today!"

Wang Huaize still looked down upon this guy, always feeling that he was hypocritical.

Although the Fang family is also an aristocratic family, it is only a third-rate family, far behind Wang Xie's family.

But today, people are willing to be taken advantage of, and Wang Huaize is not polite and uses his strength.

Just as everyone was eating and drinking, they heard noises coming from downstairs.

"Jin Xian, look if that's your second brother!"

Ma Tao was at the edge of the window. When he lowered his head, he saw several men in armor, riding on tall horses.

The one at the front looked familiar, so he quickly called Zhu Jinxian.

Everyone gathered together and looked down, and saw the person who made them scared.

Especially Zhu Jinxian, who else could he be if he wasn't his second brother!

How come it came back so fast! He's not ready yet!

Everyone immediately dispersed like birds and ran back to their homes.

It is said that Zhu Jinyu has been fond of martial arts since he was a child, and his character, personality and appearance are liked by his elders.

The relationship between several first-class families is intricate, and the children of each family grew up together.

When boys are together, they compete not only in reading but also in martial arts.

Zhu Jinyu is not only good at reading, but also the best in martial arts, so he naturally became the king of children.

These children were also younger than Zhu Jinyu and had naughty and unpleasant temperaments, so the parents let Zhu Jinyu take care of them.

Therefore, these dandies were subconsciously afraid when they saw Zhu Jinyu.

But fear was tinged with admiration and envy.

They enjoyed everything that the children of the aristocratic family had, but they were also tied down by their status. From then on, apart from being officials, they were left with nothing but white bodies.

Unlike Zhu Jinyu, who was also good at reading, but chose to be a military commander who was looked down upon by a wealthy family!

Moreover, he was someone who never relied on his family background and worked his way to the third rank of military attaché in anonymity. His identity was not revealed until the current emperor sat on the throne.

Fang Hongjie looked with envy and jealousy at the person who was being welcomed by the people, the handsome Zhu Jinyu riding on a tall horse.

He was dissatisfied: "Who would believe it if you say it doesn't depend on your family background!"

The shopkeeper of Lingxiao Tower respectfully took the order and knocked on the door of the private room.

"Master Fang, this is today's bill. Please check it. The total consumption is three hundred taels of gold!"

The shopkeeper walked in and said with an unchanging expression.

Fang Hongjie's face was ashen. He knew that things at Lingxiao Tower were expensive, but he didn't expect that he would spend so much on just one meal today!

The key is that he brings so much money!

He can't report the Fang family's debt either. If his grandfather and father find out, they will definitely break one of his legs!

Damn these! I will definitely ask them to pay back double the amount in the future!

Fang Hongjie gritted his teeth secretly, but his expression was calm.

He asked the boy to go back and get a stack of banknotes from his mother, and then left in the shopkeeper's sight.

The shopkeeper chuckled and whispered to himself: "Another scam!"

Then he walked to a private room on the fourth floor that was never open to people. He arched his back and knocked lightly. He didn't walk in until he heard a majestic voice inside saying, "Come in!"

The shopkeeper was respectful and more sincere than when he was facing Fang Hongjie just now.

The decoration inside is more elegant and comfortable than other private rooms, and the space is larger.

Inside, two men were playing chess at a chessboard.

One is younger and dignified, and the clothes on his body tell people at a glance that he has a noble status.

The other person was wearing simple robes. If it weren't for the handsome face that had gone through the vicissitudes of life, it would be difficult to find him among the crowd.

After the shopkeeper entered, he didn't dare to make a sound easily and stood quietly aside with his back hunched.

It wasn't until the end of the game when the young man won that he looked at the thick stack of silver notes in the shopkeeper's hand and said calmly: "Who did you trick again?"

The shopkeeper smiled and said: "Look what you said, isn't this a normal charge for me? How can you deceive people?"

With that said, he handed the money to the guard hiding in the dark, and then respectfully stepped back and left the private room.

The young man said to the vicissitudes of life: "If my sister is still here, I'm afraid she won't want to see you like this!"

The vicissitudes of life man smiled sadly, his eyes no longer sparkling.
