Chapter 97.2
Chapter 97.2
“Young madam, do you want to buy some wine?” Xiao Liu couldn’t help asking curiously when he saw Cheng Qi sniffing among a bunch of wine jars. When he was in the villa before, he didn’t seem to see the young madam drinking.
“When you get married, of course you have to have wine.” Cheng Qi said matter-of-fact, feeling a little guilty. He had promised the young master not to drink anymore, but it should be okay during a wedding, he thought.
“Young madam, we have a collection of Taolu wine in our store. It has a fragrant and pure taste and a light spicy flavor. Would you like to try some?” When the shopkeeper saw the two entering, he noticed they were well-dressed and immediately stepped forward to promote the store’s excellent product.
“Okay, just a little.” Cheng Qi couldn’t help but lick his lips, thinking of the aroma of the wine he had tasted at the Prince’s Mansion.
The shopkeeper led the two of them into the inner room, took out two tasting bottles of their wine, and filled them with a little clear wine. He handed them to the two of them, saying, “Please try it, young madam.”
Cheng Qi and Xiao Liu took the glasses one after another. Cheng Qi held it in his hand and smelled it. Then he took a small sip but couldn’t help smacking his lips. When he tasted the aroma of the wine in his mouth, his eyes lit up. This wine was even better than the one from the Prince’s Mansion.
Seeing this, Xiao Liu also took a sip. Although he didn’t understand wine, he thought the wine had a good aroma.
In the end, Cheng Qi ordered thirty kilograms in one breath, put all the wine into the storage bag while the shopkeeper was stunned, and then walked out of the wine shop with satisfaction.
When the waiter in the store saw the two walking away, he asked the shopkeeper with a confused look on his face, “Shopkeeper, the young madam just waved his hand and all the wine disappeared. Did you see clearly where he was hiding it?”
The shopkeeper thought for a long time and then suddenly slapped his head and said, “It’s a storage bag. I heard that Li Tianyan is back. It seems the news is true.”
Thinking of the shuanger with a mask covering his face, Li Tianyan’s wife often wore a mask to hide his ugly appearance. Then it must Li Tianyan’s wife just now.
When the waiter heard about the storage bag, he couldn’t help but say with envy, “The cultivator is really different. Such a precious treasure as the storage bag is actually used to hold wine.”@@@@
Cheng Qi and Xiao Liu left the wine shop and continued shopping. Since the wedding dress was not customized in advance, they had to buy a ready-made dress. However, Cheng Qi was willing to spend money and chose a wedding gown for Xiao Liu made of very fine materials. However, the dress was a little too big, so he asked the tailor in the store to quickly alter it.
After entering through the gate of Cheng Mansion, Cheng Qi followed the maid who led him to the east courtyard of the Cheng Mansion. This was where Madam Cheng Mansion lived, the master of Cheng Mansion’s backyard, but he had only been there a handful of times since he was a child.
“Young master*, please come in. The madam is already waiting inside.” A maid came out of the room, lowered her head, and raised her hand to guide Cheng Qi.
Cheng Qi glanced at the inner door before stepping in. At this time, only Madam Cheng was sitting alone on the long couch in the middle of the room. The door behind him was closed by the maid as soon as he entered.
“You are here.” When Madam Cheng saw the person entering, a complicated look flashed in her eyes.
After Cheng Feiyue returned from Yuncheng, he told her everything he saw in Yunpeng Secret Realm. Hearing that Cheng Qi could also practice immortal technique, Madam Cheng was jealous.
Her son didn’t have spiritual roots nor a connection with Tianfan Immortal Sect. Her daughter had settled into a good marriage, but her fiancé was killed in Yunpeng Secret Realm by a murderer. On the other hand, Cheng Qi and Li Tianyan found a treasure in the Yunpeng Secret Realm that even the immortals valued. Over the years, every time she thought about it, she felt unbalanced, as if the blood of the main branch family was openly suppressing her and ridiculing her.
Cheng Qi naturally noticed the unkind look from the other party. He did not even want to be polite and asked directly, “What does Madam mean by the letter?”
“The people of Tianfan Immortal Sect are determined to get what you and Li Tianyan have. You cannot go against them forever; you will have to compromise sooner or later. Instead of giving someone else the advantage, it is better to hand it over in the name of the Cheng family, so that the Cheng family can still rely on you two.” Madam Cheng felt she had the upper hand so she spoke domineeringly.
In her opinion, when these two people returned to Jincheng, the two planned to bow to Tianfan Immortal Sect. Li Tianyan had already severed ties with the Li family, so it was better to leave this benefit to the Cheng family.
“I didn’t come here to hear this.” Cheng Qi didn’t care about what she said. “Why would Madam know that I have a different constitution than ordinary people?”
Note
*Walk sideways: being so powerful, no one could bully.
*Cheng Qi is the descendant of Cheng family, so he is still the young master of Cheng family in the maid’s eyes.
