Chapter 179
Patriarch? !
Thinking of this, Chu Ning's heart moved, "I know where his self-confidence comes from."

Fang Shengyu sneered, "It's not that I look down on the Chu family, a small family as big as a sesame seed, without even a decent ancestral hall, so I have the nerve to call it a family."

The members of the Chu clan are all poor, living on the fields of the tenant family, and can only eat enough in good times. If there is a famine, they can't even fill their stomachs. How can they have enough money to build ancestral halls?

It is even more impossible to have family property such as ancestral fields.

So Chu Pinglin, the patriarch, actually doesn't have any real power, but is just a name.

It's a joke that he wants to take advantage of Chu Ning's family as the patriarch.

Chu Ning also sneered, "He still treats others as his tribe."

Speaking of this, Fang Shengyu frowned slightly, "This matter still depends on your father's wishes. If you rush to stop it, it will not be good."

Chu Ning nodded, "Well, I know."

Encountered this kind of irritability early in the morning, she was a little irritable, and she couldn't calm down when she was practicing, and then she was punished by senior brother Deng Tianyang to squat under the sun.

Chu Ning wailed, "Brother, can you change the place, I will get tanned under the sun."

She has to study and practice martial arts on weekdays, so she has no time to toss this face when she is busy. She hasn't made a facial mask for a long time. When she was taking a shower yesterday, she suddenly found that her hands were ten shades darker than her arms. She was so frightened that she hurried to find the mirror, and saw that the color of her face and body was also ten shades different.

Shocked and anxious, she decided that from now on she would walk while avoiding the sun, and would never do activities under the sun again.

In the end, the big brother punished her to squat under the sun.

Chu Ning had a bitter face, "I'll squat under the porch, okay, big brother, don't let people burn into charcoal."

As soon as she finished speaking, a cat called Chun Shi came from behind her, "Don't let her burn into charcoal~"

Chu Ning turned around and kicked him, Jing Xiangwu screamed and dodged, "Don't want it, don't hit him~"

Seeing the two fighting, Xing Zhichou, Jing Jianxiong, Kuang Zhengyi, Fan Chen, and Hou Yue all laughed.

Fang Shengyu blocked Jing Xiangwu's way, "Stinky boy, where are you running!"

He and Chu Ning worked together to surround people, and beat them up, "See if you still learn!"

"Aiyo, aiyo, I don't dare, I don't dare, let me go."

"Haha, you boy deserves a beating."

Seeing them making a fuss with the children, a smile flashed across Deng Tianyang's eyes, "Okay, stop making trouble, what does it look like?"

In the end, Chu Ning was only punished to squat on the porch for [-] quarters of an hour, Fang Shengyu was still fanning her at the side, which wasn't too hard, but when she competed with the second senior brother Wei Chengfeng's team in the archery competition, she was completely overheated.

"I won't have dinner with you, there are still some things at home, I have to go back..."

"Let's go, let's go, first go to sweetheart time to eat ice bowls, and then go to Zuixiangju to drink iced fruit wine."

Chu Ning was dragged away by Fang Shengyu before he could finish his sentence.

Zhao Hongyi glanced at Zeng Tianyu quietly, seeing that his eyes were following Chu Ning closely without blinking, he couldn't help sighing, "I heard that Zuixiangju is releasing green plum wine just made this year, let's go, Let's try it too."

After hearing this, Li Boyuan clapped his hands and said, "Green plum wine, it's sweet and sour, with a few ice cubes, it's even more refreshing, ah, just thinking about it makes my mouth water."

Zhao Hongyi gave him a sidelong glance, and continued to talk to Zeng Tianyu, "Speaking of green plum wine, I think of that poem: Lang rides a bamboo horse, makes green plums around the bed..."

"Haha, let me say, do you miss the little lady, why are you still reciting such sour poems?"

Originally, Zhao Hongyi wanted to imply that Chu Ning and Fang Shengyu were a pair of childhood sweethearts, so that Zeng Tianyu would stop being persistent, but as a result, he had just started, and Li Boyuan, who was not long-eyed, came to make trouble. The brainless goods were kicked out of Nancheng.

"Chu Ning!"

As soon as sweetheart time entered, someone ran over like a gust of wind, and Chu Ning quickly hid to the side, "Stop, stop, if you don't stop, you will run into me."

Xie Qi let out an oh, and hurriedly stopped, "Hey~, Chu Ning, how long has it been since I saw you, why are you so dark?"

Chu Ning clutched his chest: Eldest sister, if you can't speak, don't speak, why poke at the bottom of the heart.

Fang Shengyu gave Xie Qi a blank look, "Get out of the way, what are you doing in the road, didn't you see that we were going in?"

"What? Are you walking sideways?"

Xie Qi pinched his waist, "You can't even get through such a big place, are you a crab?"

Seeing that the two were about to pinch each other, Chu Ning hurriedly pulled her away, "Didn't you go to the capital? When did you come back?"

Xie Qi smiled and said, "I just came back yesterday, and I wanted to go to the academy, but I just remembered this morning that I will take a rest today, so I went out to play with my cousin."

"Cousin? Mr. Wu is back too?"

I heard that Wu Xibin, the newly promoted Jinshi of the second list, entered the Imperial Academy and became a scholar, how could he come back when he is free.

"Well, my cousin asked for a leave of absence to see us off. He will return to the capital immediately after two days of rest."

Chu Ning nodded, expressing his understanding.

It is said that the outside is very chaotic, bandits and robbers are rampant, and those who have no means of saving their lives dare not go out. Mr. Wu is worried about his mother and cousin, so he personally escorted them back.

"Hey, Chu Ning, you haven't said yet, why have you become so dark."

Xie Qi's words made Chu Ning blacken, this is endless.

"Pfft~"

Jing Xiangwu burst out laughing, "Guess why she is so dark?"

Chu Ning gritted his teeth, "Is the skin itchy again?"

Fang Shengyu slammed Jing Xiangwu away, "Go, ignore them."

"Oh, Chu Ning, are you angry?"

Xie Qi frantically followed the two of them, "I don't mean anything else, I just want to care about it."

Chu Ning hummed, "I know, I'm not angry."

Hearing what she said, Xie Qi was relieved, "It's fine if you're not angry, just say it, you're not stingy."

After finishing speaking, she said again, "By the way, I bought a lot of pearl ointment in the capital. I'll give you a bottle when I turn back. It's very useful. Look, my face is much whiter and tender now..."

Fang Shengyu rolled his eyes, he didn't know why a shrewd person like Wu Xibin fell in love with this girl.

"Give us an ice bowl each, and hurry up."

After practicing all morning, everyone is hot and tired. There is nothing better than a bowl of cold fruit ice cream.

"Huh~, I finally came back to life."

Li Boyuan put down the crystal bowl that was still exuding cold air, and let out a long sigh of satisfaction, "Today's breaking the sky, I almost blown my brother up."

Xie Qi just ate a lot, and now she dare not continue to eat. This food is delicious, but it is too cold, and eating too much will hurt her stomach, so she is drooling now watching Chu Ning eat, "Where are you going later?" Have a meal?"

"Fang Shengyu said to go to Zuixiangju."

"Well, then can I go with you?"

"Yes, why not."

Xie Qi laughed happily, "That's great, my cousin is busy talking about things and won't accompany me. I'm bored now, so I'm lucky to meet you."
