Chapter 68 The Untamed 11

Chapter 68 The Untamed 11
After an hour and a half by boat, Ling Xi and Wei Ying arrived in Yunmeng.

The scenery of Yunmeng is indeed beautiful. There are lotus ponds everywhere, one after another. At a glance, there are green lotus leaves and countless pink lotus flowers.

Ling Xi saw the scene of endless green lotus leaves reaching the sky and exceptionally red lotus flowers reflecting the sun.

The people of Yunmeng on the shore are setting up small stalls, with a strong breath of life and the smell of fireworks everywhere.

Although they don't like the Jiang family very much, the people of Yunmeng under their rule live a pretty good life.

Wei Ying was in a very good mood. It was his first time going out and he usually stayed in Yiling, where he rarely saw water, let alone ponds like this.

Wei Ying raised his head, "Sister, this place is very beautiful."

Ling Xi nodded: "Yes, let's find an inn to stay in first."

"it is good."

The two walked along, Wei Ying looked here and there, everything seemed new to him, and he wanted to buy some to try.

Ling Xi didn't restrict him and let him buy whatever he wanted, since he was spending his own private money anyway.

Everything here in Yunmeng has some characteristics of lotus. Some of the little gadgets look very good and can be bought and hung at home.

While Wei Ying was strolling around, he had sharp eyes and saw a small stall selling jewelry.

Wei Ying's eyes lit up and he ran over and stood in front of the stall.

"Young Master, take a look, is there anything you want to buy?"

Seeing that Wei Ying was well-dressed and very handsome, the vendors were all smiles.

Wei Ying picked and chose and finally chose a light pink lotus hairpin, the jade was translucent and looked so tender.

Wei Ying felt at first glance that this hairpin was very suitable to be worn on his sister's head.

My sister's hair is so black, long and shiny, it will look great on me, Wei Ying thought secretly.

"Boss, I want this one." He picked it out at a glance.

"Oh, you have a good eye, young master. This is the best hairpin in our family. Who do you want to buy it for?"

Wei Ying grinned, "Give it to me, Sister."

The vendor then continued to praise him, saying, "The young master is so handsome, his sister must be as beautiful as a fairy from heaven."

Wei Ying was delighted when he heard this, he puffed out his chest and said proudly, "Of course."

In his heart, his elder sister is the most beautiful and best person in the world, one-of-a-kind.

"Boss, how much?" he asked.

The vendor held up five fingers and said, "Young Master, five taels of silver."

Wei Ying was not a person who did not understand prices. When he first had money, he went out to buy a lot of things every day and soon spent all the monthly salary that his sister gave him. As a result, he couldn't even eat a candied haws.

Later, his elder sister gave him a lecture, and he learned to arrange his monthly salary reasonably, so that he could save some money after buying what he needed every month.

Over time, he saved up a considerable sum of money.

At first, he would be cheated by those small vendors when buying things, but after following Uncle Zhao and Aunt Zhao out a few times, he understood their routines and would not be fooled so easily. The jade of this hairpin is relatively good, and it is a rare pink color, so five taels of silver is not too much.

Wei Ying took out his purse filled with silver, counted out a piece of silver, and handed it to the boss: "Boss, here you go."

He held the hairpin in his hand, then turned around and saw his elder sister looking at him.

He immediately became very excited, ran over, and showed the lotus hairpin in his hand to his elder sister, "Sister, you will look great wearing this."

Ling Xi felt very warm in her heart. Although the little boy at home was naughty, he was particularly sympathetic when he was sensible.

She took the hairpin, touched it, and found it felt very good, so it seemed that she had not been cheated.

Today’s Wei Ying is very different from the naive boy in the original plot and he won’t be fooled anymore.

The pink color is delicate and looks particularly girly.

She put the hairpin on her hair and said, "Aying, does it look good?"

Wei Ying looked at the hairpin that sparkled in the sun and praised, "It looks good."

After walking around for a while, they went to eat at a street stall.

There are quite a few special snacks in Yunmeng, but many of them are fish and shrimp, and they are mostly spicy, but they taste very good.

Ling Xi ate the noodles in the bowl made from the soup made from fresh fish and shrimp, then looked at the lethal amount of red pepper in Wei Ying's bowl and took a deep breath.

As siblings, why do their tastes differ so much?

Her taste is relatively light, but Aying loves spicy food. When she eats at home, she has to add a lot of hot sauce, almost turning the rice red.

This bowl of noodles has to be spicy, and even though it’s so spicy, his face doesn’t change at all. I don’t know how he does it.

While eating, Ling Xi heard the words of a diner beside him: "Have you heard that Madam Yu had another quarrel with Sect Master Jiang recently?"

Another person answered: "Is this something strange? Don't they quarrel all the time? People in Yunmeng are used to it."

"It's different this time," the man lowered his voice and looked around. "I heard that Madam Yu took Miss Jiang and Young Master Jiang back to Meishan a few days ago. Master Jiang went to pick them up yesterday. And I heard that they started quarreling again as soon as they were brought back."

Another person asked curiously: "It's so serious, why is it this time?"

The man whispered, "I heard it was because of the deceased Cangse Sanren. It is said that Sect Master Jiang found her and Wei Changze's children. Sect Master Jiang wants to bring them back and betroth their daughter to Young Sect Master Jiang. Don't you think this violates Madam Yu's bottom line? How can she accept the daughter of her former rival as her daughter-in-law? Maybe she will have a son-in-law like her in the future?"

The other person's face changed color and asked, "But didn't Sect Master Jiang bring back Cangse Sanren's children? And didn't Miss Jiang have an engagement with the Young Sect Master of the Lanling Jin Clan?"

The man replied, "If he didn't bring her back this time, what about next time? Who knows, maybe he will bring her back someday. You also know that Sect Master Jiang has deep feelings for Cangse Sanren. Who knows, maybe the children are his? Moreover, isn't it common knowledge that the young master of Lanling Jin Clan doesn't like and despises Miss Jiang?"

Another person showed a look of shock on his face: "This is impossible? Sect Master Jiang doesn't seem like that kind of person, does he?"

The man replied, "Who knows what he is like? You also know that Sect Master Jiang was forced to marry Madam Yu, and was even pressured by the Meishan Yu Clan. How could a grown man endure this?"

"Ah," another person sighed, "You said that the couple quarreled all day long. The whole Yunmeng knew that they had a bad relationship. Even Sect Master Jiang didn't care much about his two children. Madam Yu is the mistress of the Jiang family, but she calls herself Madam Yu. People can hear her scolding outside the Lotus Pier every day. Miss Jiang has been born with a bad body, but they don't seek medical treatment for her, and the disciples of the Jiang family are not trained. Among the five great families, they gossip the most, making others laugh at them for nothing."

The man nodded, "That's true."
