Chapter 472 472: Second update

"Master, are you okay?"

Outside the ancient martial arts world, a noble man propped himself up under an ancient tree, bending over weakly.

When Yi Nian arrived, the man spit out a mouthful of blood with a "pop" sound.

"master."

Fu Yanya wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, poured a pill from the bottle in his pocket and put it into his mouth.

"nothing."

"Go back to Beijing."

Immediately, Yi Nian helped the man get into the car. As soon as the man got into the car, he fell into a coma.

In the car, Ling Tu felt relieved when he saw Yi Nian.

"One thought, you are finally back."

Yi Nian ignored Ling Tu, but directly started the car and ran towards Kyoto.

*

The sky gradually glowed with light, and the road light shone on the wet steps and gravel road that had just thawed. There were only a few people walking on the street, and only the shadows of sanitation workers sweeping away the snow loomed in the winter morning.

When Qiao Qingyan woke up, the sun had slowly risen.

Outside the yard, Fu Yanya was sitting on a chair playing with the cat as usual.

But this time Qiao Qingyan woke up and found that Yi Nian had returned to Fu Yanya's side.

Next to Fu Yanya stood Ling Tu.

"lady."

Qiao Qingyan raised his eyebrows, then sat opposite Fu Yanya and handed a dark brown pill in front of him.

"have eaten."

Fu Yanya put the elixir directly into his mouth without any hesitation. He took another sip of warm water and swallowed it.

With a thought in the dark, he frowned and stared at Fu Yanya closely, for fear that something would be wrong with him.

Ling Tu and the kitten on the ground were too shocked to speak or make any sound.

Qiao Qingyan did not explain.

Instead, he poured himself a glass of warm water. After drinking half a cup, he spoke slowly.

"Today is the winter solstice, let's go next door together? Or here..."

It's the winter solstice. No wonder Aunt Li asked him this morning whether he liked dumplings or glutinous rice balls. Today’s breakfast includes both glutinous rice balls and dumplings.

He thought it was strange at the time. It turns out today is the winter solstice.

"Let's get together. Let's be lively."

After lunch, both of them were a little drowsy, so they went back to the house to rest. No one mentioned anything about what happened last night.

But deep down in their hearts, the two of them knew it well.

Qiao Qingyan had a system on her body, and coupled with her sensitive perception, it was impossible not to notice Fu Yanya's departure and his weak body today.

Fu Yanya was also worried that his actions would be noticed by Qiao Qingyan, so he did not mention the ambush last night.

What happened yesterday passed quietly like this.

As night fell, the two talents stepped into the courtyard together hand in hand.

There were already many people inside the house.

Si Jinnan, Ji Ge: "Beauty Qiao..."

"Beauty boss..."

"Sister Qiao."

It's Nanzhu and Hemeng. I don't know when these two people got in touch with Si Jinnan and Ji Qiangwei. No, they just happened to get together.

He Meng stuck out his tongue. "The things over there are just waiting to be finalized. I will come to Kyoto to have some fun."

Naturally, Hemeng checked the man Fu Yanya after he left last time, and roughly knew his identity.

Facing Fu Yanya this time, He Meng was obviously more rigorous.

"Hello, brother-in-law."

When Nan Zhu heard this title, the corner of his mouth twitched in anger, but he did not dare to refute.

After all, he is not a rowan. Someone comes to the rescue.

"Beauty boss, this is a gift for you."

Qiao Qingyan did not refuse, but raised his hand to weigh the things in his hand.

"Winter Solstice, you give me a gift."

Nan Zhu touched his nose. "Didn't you say that you should receive gifts during the holidays?"

Qiao Qingyan:...

Very good and realistic.

"Come on, come on, come and eat dumplings."

Aunt Liu and Aunt Li came up with a large bowl of dumplings.

"No glutinous rice balls?"

Ji Ge came forward to take a look.

Aunt Liu said with a smile: "As the saying goes, if you don't serve dumpling bowls during the winter solstice, your ears will freeze off if you don't take care of them."

Ji Ge said next. "Doesn't it mean that we also eat glutinous rice balls during the Winter Solstice to represent unity?"

"Winter Solstice Yuan, if you eat glutinous rice balls, you will be one year older."

Uncle Lian came in carrying several small bowls of glutinous rice balls.

"After the winter solstice, it's the new year. Of course, there are also glutinous rice balls."

"Mr. Fu, I made these glutinous rice balls myself. They are salty. You try them." Aunt Liu also heard from Aunt Li that Fu Yanya didn't like sweet foods.

It happened that Aunt Liu's hometown had special salty glutinous rice balls, so she made a few of them herself.

Qiao Qingyan took the lead in digging out one with a spoon and eating it.

Then he nodded and said: "The salty one is not bad, it's quite delicious."

"Taste it."

Fu Yanya's hand holding the spoon paused slightly.

"Miss, I don't use peanut oil at home, so I made my own decision..."

Qiao Qingyan raised his eyes and smiled slightly. "Yes. I don't eat peanuts."

"I thought it was Mr. Fu who didn't want to eat..."

"This dumpling will taste even better if peanuts are added. Miss Qiao, these sweet dumplings are made with black sesame seeds and no peanuts. Don't worry."

Qiao Qingyan raised his eyes and smiled slightly. "Yeah, it's delicious."

When they heard that the host liked it, the three of them breathed a sigh of relief, then brought the dishes and left quietly.

He Meng in the room looked at Qiao Qingyan in surprise, while Nan Zhu was even more surprised.

When did the beauty boss stop eating peanuts?

Didn't she spend the whole night drinking with the old man over this plate of peanuts?

Could it be that he was injured that time?

Fu Yanya lowered his eyes and took a bite of glutinous rice balls.

It's stuffed with fresh meat and some dried fruits. They taste great together and don't feel weird.

Instead, it has another flavor.

Fu Yanya had already discovered that there were no peanuts or other food at home.

Even the oil is not peanut oil.

At first he thought the servant who was purchasing it did not buy it.

Now it seems...

Fu Yanya looked in the direction of Qiao Qingyan and saw her holding a spoon and chewing the food in her mouth slowly.

As if aware of his gaze, Qiao Qingyan looked back at him.

"Want to drink?"

"Brewed rice wine by yourself."

"Brewed on the day of the Beginning of Winter. You can taste the first wine." After the second fermentation, you have to wait for the Spring Equinox before you can drink it.

Fu Yanya was not a drinker, but he was a little moved when he heard that he had brewed it himself.

He touched his legs, thinking about something.

"No problem, a little rice wine." No problem.

Soon Ji Qiangwei asked Aunt Liu to get some rice wine, warm it up and come in.

As soon as the rice wine was brought in, I could smell the scent of osmanthus fragrant with the rice wine from a distance.

"Sister Qiangwei, this smells so good."

"Can I take some with me?"

Ji Qiangwei poured everyone a small glass of rice wine. I also poured some more for He Meng.

"You have to ask her about this."

The wine was brewed by Qiao Qingyan. Ji Qiangwei just took advantage of her.

He Meng immediately looked at Qiao Qingyan eagerly.

Qiao Qingyan refused without even thinking about it. "Can't."

"I'll keep it for use."

"I know." Ji Ge jumped out immediately, and then said something earth-shattering.

"Beauty should save the wedding wine."

473: First update

Traditionally, Gusu people drink winter wine on the night of the winter solstice.

Generally, rice is soaked from the beginning of winter, and pressed, fried, and sealed in jars for storage at the spring equinox of the following year.

Winter brewing requires two fermentations. The first fermentation time is shorter, while the second fermentation time takes several months.

"You know how to make wine? Is that wine really?"

Fu Yanya drank a little too much, and the corners of his eyes were flushed, but he was very happy.

Especially after hearing what Ji Ge said. He felt sweet in his heart.

On the way back, Qiao Qingyan pushed him into the yard as usual. After entering the yard, Fu Yanya suddenly grabbed her hand.

Qiao Qingyan knelt down and stroked his eyebrows.

"the first time."

"No."

This was her first time brewing in this world, and it was also her first time in the memory of the original owner.

It turns out that the person who makes wine is not preparing wedding wine as Ji Ge calls it.

But because...

On the day of the Beginning of Winter, an idea seemed to come to mind. Someone once said that they wanted to drink winter wine, and they once mentioned the winter wine made by people in Gusu.

A flash of disappointment flashed in Fu Yanya's eyes. Qiao Qingyan stood up, poured a glass of honey water and handed it to the corner of his mouth.

"Drink it and you'll feel better tomorrow."

"Be good, go to bed early."

Fu Yanya didn't know why, but when Qiao Qingyan turned around, he suddenly pulled her hard.

"Qingqing, we will be together forever."

Qiao Qingyan turned around, bent down, touched his head, and comforted him carefully.

"As long as you are good, you will get whatever you want."

"If you want to be together forever, you'll be together forever."

"Ah."

Fu Yanya lowered his head and put his entire face into the palm of her hand.

The small palms could only cover half of his face.

Qiao Qingyan was so kind to him that Fu Yanya was afraid that she would leave at any time.

She obviously gave him enough sense of security, but it made him feel that this kind of goodness was a little unreal.

Qiao Qingyan didn't understand what Fu Yanya was being pretentious about, but she was willing to indulge him.

*

That night, a strange phenomenon descended from the sky. The dark night sky suddenly became as bright as day, and the sound of hundreds of birds approaching the phoenix could be heard from the sky.

But in just a short moment, the dark sky covered the day. As if everything just now was just an illusion.

However, a thoughtful person discovered this vision.

"Taoist Master, this is..."

"Master, I seemed to hear Bai Feng's voice just now. Could it be that I was hallucinating?"

On the top of the mountain, Wu Xudao looked at the sky that was just as bright as day. Even though the sky was dark at the moment, it was definitely not an illusion.

"It's an auspicious sign."

"Ask where Miss Qiao is."

But the thought in the darkness of the courtyard was even more shocking.

Because he clearly saw a white light rising into the sky, and the dark sky suddenly became as bright as day. The moment the sky lit up, hundreds of birds looked towards the phoenix, and the phoenix's song was sweet and sweet.

But in just a short moment, the sky turned dark again. The peace of the past was restored.

*

The sky turned white, and the morning light penetrated the dawn sky, awakening the sleeping earth, and the quiet streets returned to bustling.

Early that morning, the door of Fujing Residence opened wide, and the entire Fujing Residence began to get busy.

Even Qiao Qingyan, who always liked to sleep in, was dragged up by Ji Qiangwei.

"You have to take a look at the things in person. See what's missing."

"Are you ready for what I asked you to prepare?"

Qiao Qingyan leaned on the sofa and yawned lazily. "Ready."

"What time will they arrive?"

Ji Qiangwei glanced at the time. "Landing at eleven o'clock."

"The Duke said we don't need to pick him up. He will go directly to the mansion. Come directly here tomorrow morning."

Qiao Qingyan nodded. "Okay." "Miss Qiao, a monk came outside and said he was looking for you." Aunt Liu walked in carrying a vegetable basket.

She had just returned from shopping for groceries when she met someone looking for Qiao Qingyan at the door. She was afraid that she was a liar, so she didn't dare to let anyone in.

monk?

After Qiao Qingyan and Ji Qiangwei walked out of the door, they saw Taoist Master Wu Xu.

When Taoist Priest Wu Xu saw Ji Qiangwei, his eyes stayed on her for a long time, and he suddenly realized it after a few minutes.

"Little friend Qiao."

Ji Qiangwei has naturally met Taoist Wu Xu,

The moment Taoist Master Wu Xu saw Qiao Qingyan, he suddenly understood the reason for the vision last night.

"This is a happy event for you, little friend Qiao. I wonder if I am so honored and blessed."

Qiao Qingyan invited Taoist Master Wu Xu into the house and wrote an invitation personally.

"Wuxu Taoist Master Ruo doesn't dislike it."

Taoist priest Wu Xu quickly took the invitation and shook his head with a smile. "It's my blessing."

As soon as Taoist Master Wu Xu left, Qiao Qingyan's cell phone rang.

"Beauty Boss, are you going to hold a banquet? I'll go too. Invitation!"

It's Nanzhu.

Nanzhu heard what Ji Ge said when the show ended last night, but Qiao Qingyan and Fu Yanya had already left early, so he didn't dare to disturb them.

No, he called early this morning.

Qiao Qingyan pressed his eyebrows. Then he asked Ji Qiangwei to get a few more invitations. Neither Nan Zhu nor He Meng fell behind.

At this time, the Qiao family in Kyoto.

Qiao Zhiyao suddenly spoke at the breakfast table.

"There is a banquet tomorrow. Chuyi and Zhihiro should go with me."

Qiao Chuyi has been staying at home recently, unwilling to go out.

Mrs. Qiao has also been discussing Luo Qiao Chuyi's life events recently. Qiao Chuyi has also noticed something, so she has been very peaceful recently.

Qiao Zhihong felt much more at ease after returning from the hospital.

As the New Year approaches, a lot of things happen in Kyoto, and he doesn't go out much recently.

Suddenly hearing that Qiao Zhiyao wanted to take him to the banquet, he was a little reluctant.

But Mrs. Qiao Er immediately agreed.

"Okay. Go."

Qiao Chuyi looked at Mrs. Qiao as if asking for help, but Mrs. Qiao smiled.

"You've been bored at home lately. Let's go out with you tomorrow to relax."

Qiao Chuyi actually didn't want to go. do not know why.

Maybe he was afraid that it would be a blind date party, or maybe he was worried that Qiao Zhiyao or the Qiao family had ulterior motives.

"Mom, I..."

Mrs. Qiao looked at Qiao Chuyi's beautiful, tearful eyes and did not feel soft.

Instead, he smiled and reassured.

"It's time for you to go out for a walk. It's not good to stay at home all the time."

"You can go with your eldest and second brothers tomorrow."

"As brothers, you two have to take good care of your sister, do you hear me?"

Qiao Zhihong answered quickly. "Auntie, I will take good care of Chu Yi."

Qiao Zhiyao just hummed softly.

But there was not much reaction.

After breakfast, Mrs. Qiao pulled Qiao Zhiyao aside.

"What kind of banquet? Why haven't I heard of it?"

Logically speaking, she couldn't have heard of any banquets held in Kyoto's upper class circles.

"Don't worry. I have an opinion."

"It's a serious banquet. It's not made public. It's normal that you don't know."

With Qiao Zhiyao's answer, Mrs. Qiao felt a little more at ease.

474: Second update

"Brother Ya, you are sure you are right. Is this really here?"

Xie Youlin looked at the hotel standing in front of him and suspected that he was in the wrong place.

He remembered that Brother Ya was a little star who had withdrawn from the industry.

A little star can entertain guests at Fuguang.

This is Fuguang, a place even harder to book than the Food Garden. Moreover, there has never been a feast here.

It is not easy for Xie Youlin to get in here because of his reputation as a member of the Xie family.

It wasn't until Ling Tu pushed Fu Yanya to the door that Xie Youlin walked in with shock.

"Brother Ya, how much money have you spent? You can even book a banquet for her here."

Ling Tu glanced at him doubtfully.

"The lady ordered it herself. The young master didn't help."

"Hey, even the madam called me. Ling Tu, you are so quick to rebel."

Ling Tu was silent.

That night, if Qiao Qingyan had not taken action, he himself was not sure whether he would have been able to hold on until reinforcements arrived.

Moreover, loyalty to the young master is engraved in his bones. Other issues were not his concern.

Since the young master said she is a madam, then she is a madam.

"What about her?"

The two stopped in the corner, and Fu Yanya looked somewhere in the banquet hall.

"There she is."

Xie Youlin followed his gaze and saw a woman wearing a cheongsam sitting not far away.

Women are dignified and elegant. Just like the daughter of a famous noble family who walked out of the ancient noble pavilion.

Between his frown and his smile, his gestures were solemn and elegant, graceful and noble.

Sitting there, she naturally exuded the noble aura of a superior looking down on others.

But as Xie Youlin's eyes moved downward, she discovered that the person sitting next to her turned out to be...

"Brother Ya, am I right?"

That old man must be the old Duke of the Qianbao royal family.

"No, take another look."

Xie Youlin continued to look down. The next second, he stood up abruptly, and Fu Yanya caught him in time to prevent him from making any more noise.

"That's Mr. Fang!!!"

Why is he here?

Since that incident happened a few years ago, Mr. Fang has not appeared in the public eye.

Some time ago, he returned to Beijing in a low-key manner and declined all visitors.

The latest news is related to the Jian family.

Before Xie Youlin was shocked, there was movement at the door.

"Miss Qiao."

Qiao Qingyan stood up and walked forward.

"Mrs. Chu."

They were a luxurious woman and an elegant man, and between them was an eight or nine-year-old child.

"This is my husband, and this is Xiaoxu."

"Mr. Chu."

"Hello, Xiaoxu." Qiao Qingyan frowned and bent down.

A glimmer of light flashed in the boy's eyes, and then he hid behind Mrs. Chu.

Mrs. Chu was a little embarrassed and wanted to explain, but Qiao Qingyan smiled sweetly.

"He's very good."

The couple looked at each other and smiled.

"I'll go! Isn't that the eldest lady of the Ximen family?"

"The Chu family stays in the city!"

Xie Youlin was so shocked that he didn't know how to speak.

And naturally there were others who were as shocked as Xie Youlin at this moment.

Qiao Zhiyao brought Qiao Chuyi and Qiao Zhihong here early.

The three of them also found a quiet corner to stay, which was not conspicuous.

Qiao Chuyi and Qiao Zhihong didn't know the old Duke. Although they heard about Mr. Fang, they didn't recognize him.

but. They knew this eldest lady of the Ximen family and the wife of the Chu family.

"Brother, those are the Chu family in Liucheng."

Naturally, Qiao Chuyi also knew Miss Ximen. She had met her when the four major families gathered together. I've always been envious.

But at this moment, seeing the aloof young lady Ximen being so familiar with Qiao Qingyan made her feel uncomfortable.

"Brother, I want to go back."

Qiao Zhiyao did not answer. Qiao Chuyi could only pull Qiao Zhihong's clothes.

Qiao Zhihong naturally did not dare to resist Qiao Zhiyao on weekdays. Don't even dare to mention one.

But when Qiao Chuyi looked at him with pitiful eyes, he felt a little soft.

"Brother, we are not familiar with her either. In fact, her banquet is nothing to attend."

"She is just a little star, what kind of banquet can she hold..."

Qiao Zhiyao's eyes suddenly turned cold, staring straight at him.

Qiao Zhihong's words froze on his lips, but he didn't dare to say any more.

I can only lower my head and dare not speak anymore.

"Beauty boss."

"Sister Qiao..."

Nanzhu and Hemeng came together. When the two people appeared, some people were surprised and some were confused.

Southern candle. Executive CEO of Phylion.

As for the little girl next to him, who he really knew at the scene, she was shocked.

"Brother Ya, who is that little girl?"

"The only heir to the family."

Xie Youlin instantly felt that the dessert on his hand no longer tasted good, and he wanted to bite off his tongue.

"She was just shouting..."

"Calling Madam." Ling Tu added.

This was the second time for Lingtu to see Hemeng. He had met on the night of the winter solstice, so it was not surprising to see him again now.

"So, the executive CEO of Xingheng, call her boss. The heir to the He family, call her sister."

However, Xie Youlin's shock was not over yet.

"Little friend Qiao."

"I'm not late."

Taoist priest Wu Xu appeared in a Taoist robe. Today, Taoist priest Wu Xu dressed up specially.

Even the Taoist robes on his body can only be worn on formal occasions.

"Mr. Fang, the old Duke is already shocked enough. Even Taoist Master Wu Xu is here."

"Brother Ya, are you sure that these people are here for your little star."

Fu Yanya, who was still a little angry at first, felt a little excited after hearing the words "your home".

"What do you think?"

As for the Qiao family not far away, Qiao Chuyi looked at the people appearing one after another, but she felt more unwilling to do so.

"Maybe they are here for Mr. Fang and the old Duke."

From their position, it was difficult to hear what a few people said. That's why Qiao Chuyi felt that these people were not here for Qiao Qingyan.

Qiao Zhiyao didn't say anything about this. Let the two discuss it.

Until a deep and loud voice sounded.

"Girl, the old man isn't late."

When Qiao Zhihong heard this voice, he immediately stood up with a "ru" sound.

"Second brother, how do you..."

Before Qiao Chuyi finished speaking, he saw everyone standing up and looking towards the door.

A white-haired old man walked towards him with as much power as the wind at his feet.

There was also a big gift box in his hand.

"The gift is not for you."

Qiao Qingyan smiled and helped Qu Lao sit down.

Regarding Mr. Qu's arrival, everyone present was so shocked that they could only gape.

If they suspect that others are coming for Mr. Fang and the old Duke.

But Qu Lao said, "Young girl."

But it was deafening. The whole place heard it.

Mr. Fang was a little shocked when he saw Mr. Qu.

After all, he is from that place.
