Aspiring to the Immortal Path Chapter 3: Concubinage
Chapter 3 Concubinage
When Tang Jie accompanied the two elders and Qin Yan, the two stewards, to the Wei Mansion, the Wei Mansion was already decorated with lights and colorful decorations, full of festive joy.
Although the incident happened suddenly, the servants of the Wei Mansion were experienced and had arranged the house in an orderly manner in a very short period of time.
The third steward Zhu Qing personally led people to greet him at the door. After passing through the double doors and entering the flower hall, he saw Zheng Shufeng leading Wei Tianchong, Shi Meng and other people from the Wei family waiting in the hall. Wei Danbai But she should have a bigger frame and sit at the main table at the back of the flower hall with the old man and the old lady.
Such an arrangement not only loses the status and bearing of the person in charge of the Wei Mansion, but also shows that Tang Jie attaches great importance to it, which can be regarded as thoughtful.
Seeing Zheng Shufeng at this moment, Tang Jie stepped forward and bowed: "Tang Jie has met my wife."
Then he said to Wei Danbai and others from afar: "I've seen the old man, the old lady, the old man."
"Hey, get up quickly, why are you so polite?" Zheng Shufeng stepped forward quickly, supported Tang Jie and said: "You are no longer a servant, you are also a master of immortality. Such a great gift, we These mortals can't bear it, it's so embarrassing."
Tang Jie smiled and said: "My wife is serious. Tang Jie is today because of the opportunity given by the Wei family. I will never forget it at any time. How dare I be rude to the master and his wife."
"It's all in the past. From now on, we are all a family." Zheng Shufeng smiled and pulled Tang Jie to the dining table. Instead, he threw Wei Tianchong aside, looking at Tang Jie more than Wei Tianchong. Tianchong is even more kind.
Of course Tang Jie knew that Zheng Shufeng did this intentionally to gain Tang Jie's favor, but he still couldn't help but feel a little more moved.
Tang Jie was dragged directly to the main table, and the family banquet of the Wei Mansion began. The servants served the dishes smoothly, Zheng Shufeng greeted him with greetings, and even Wei Danbai, who was always rigid and straightforward, picked up a few chopsticks for Tang Jie.
Tang Jie noticed that Wei Tianzhi and Wu Xing were not present at the table, so he asked. Zheng Shufeng smiled and said, "They went to Shouwangchuan to do business, and I guess they will be back soon."
"Didn't you see Yanzhi and Sister Shiyue?" Tang Jie noticed that the maid behind Zheng Shufeng had changed.
Zheng Shufeng said with a smile: "This is silly, isn't it? Girls have to get married after all, so they should stay by their side, so there is no need to disturb them. Speaking of which, I also like these two children Yanzhi and Shiyue very much. But in the end, you can't harm others for your own sake. Come, eat food, try this fresh braised eggplant and turtle, the top-notch ones that just came from Xiancun a few days ago, there are only a few of them, and they are all here... ”
Tang Jie took a light bite, his mouth was smooth and delicious.
Yes, it has been eight years since I left home.
In the eyes of immortal cultivators, eight years flies by, but in the eyes of mortals, eight years is already a long time. By the time they return, many things have changed.
The old man Niu who had introduced him to the house passed away a few years ago, and Wen Qing went to work as a small steward outside and was married. Chapter 3 Concubinage
Not long after Wei Tianzhi came back, he found a wife, who was the daughter of the Zhou family of Canglong Mansion. As one of the five major families in the Canglong Mansion, the Zhou family's status matched that of the Wei family. The marriage between the two families increased their power even more.
In comparison, Yanzhi and Shiyue are even more normal. Unless Tang Jie tells Zheng Shufeng to keep Shi Yue waiting for her, the girl will have to marry when the time comes.
Tang Jie asked the two of them how they were doing recently, and thanks to Zheng Shufeng's care, they both understood them very well. According to her, Yanzhi was very lucky. Although she was not rich, she was married to a middle-class family. The most important thing was that her husband was quite decent and treated Yanzhi extremely well.
Shi Yue was unlucky. Her husband was a bad gambler and ruined all the good family fortune. When Wei Zheng Shufeng talked about this episode, she also sighed: "When I chose a person for her, I thought about that family. He is also considered to be well-off, and he will never let her down, who would have thought... Alas!"
Hearing this, Tang Jie thought for a moment and said, "Please give me Shiyue's address, madam, and I'll take some time to check it out."
Anyway, Shi Yue was someone who was kind to him back then. Since he had the conditions, he had to help.
Zheng Shufeng saw what he was thinking and gave him the address: "It's good that you want to help her, but remember to exercise caution and don't be too lenient. Some things are other people's family affairs after all, and outsiders should not get too involved. A lot. I have given her some money over the years, but it was finally spent by her gambler husband. It’s not that I don’t want to help, but that I can’t help.”
Tang Jie smiled and said: "I can save it. No one in the Wei family will accept what my wife does."
Zheng Shufeng rolled her eyes at him, then covered her mouth and smiled: "The problem is that there are always people who think that I am a woman, too short-sighted and too timid to do big things."
Huh? Tang Jie was stunned by these words.
Who dares to say that about his wife?
Looking along Zheng Shufeng's gaze, Tang Jie suddenly realized that Wei Danbai's face was livid, and the relationship was a conflict between husband and wife. Thinking about it, Wei Danbai was the only one in the Wei family who could say that about his wife. If it were the old lady and the old man, she wouldn't have any interference with Zheng Shufeng now.
At this moment, hearing what Zheng Shufeng said, before Wei Danbai spoke, the old lady sighed: "Here we go again, you two husband and wife, you have been fighting about these things all day long, and finally Chong'er came back, and we have to Care about it. That’s all. Anyway, you and your wife are in charge of this home now, so we won’t ask. Old man, let’s go, let’s go back.”
The old man didn't like to talk either, so the old couple left first with the help of the maid.
Wei Danbai snorted: "Look at you, you are having a good reception, why are you doing this?"
Zheng Shufeng raised an eyebrow: "How come you don't even care about what I say?"
Wei Danbai was left speechless by her, and was so angry that he stopped talking. He took a few bites and left, feeling bored after a good feast.
Zheng Shufeng didn't care at all, following the third chapter of taking concubines
He continued to serve Tang Jie with dishes and entertained him enthusiastically. Even Tang Jie couldn't help but admire Zheng Shufeng for being so patient. He could not say anything in this situation, so he had to ask himself: "I wonder what the **** is bothering me and my wife?" ."
Zheng Shufeng said casually: "It's nothing, it's just for Chong'er's marriage."
"Me?" Wei Tianchong, who was eating rice carelessly, was also stunned. Why is there something of his own here?
Manager Qin then spoke in a low voice.
It turns out that even if Wei Tianchong didn't come back this time, the Wei family had already planned to find someone to ask him to come back. The reason was that Wei Danbai planned to find a woman for him.
Of course, due to Wei Tian's status as a cultivator, he will definitely find a Taoist companion to be his wife in the future, so the only thing he can find now is a concubine. The main purpose is to save things first. After all, the path to immortality is dangerous and no one knows what the future will bring. Taking advantage of the fact that Wei Tianchong is on the rise now, he should quickly save him so that he can be cultivated in the future.
For a big family, the more prosperous the family, the better. As long as one of the heirs is successful, the whole family has hope. Like the Wei family, where the head of the family only has two children, it is already possible. The population is considered thin.
For this reason, Wei Tianchong needs to get married faster, give birth to more offspring, and cultivate more immortal cultivators, thereby laying the foundation of the family.
To put it bluntly, Wei Tianchong is to be a stallion.
Originally, this matter was very simple, just arrange it for Wei Tianchong and be done with it, but at this moment, the Gu family of Canglong Mansion got the news somehow.
The Gu family is one of the five major families in the Canglong Mansion, and its status is even slightly higher than that of the Wei family. It was not until Wei Tianchong became the true successor that the Wei family caught up in popularity in the past two years. After getting the news, the Gu family sent someone to propose marriage, proposing that one of the Gu family's daughters should be given to Wei Tianchong as a concubine, and a generous dowry would be given.
Wei Danbai was quite tempted by this matter. In his opinion, this would give the Wei family another natural ally. For a big family, the more such allies the better.
However, this matter was fiercely opposed by Zheng Shufeng.
In her opinion, the Gu family's reputation in Canglong Mansion is too bad.
The five major families in the Canglong Mansion, the Jin family is a maritime merchant, the Zhang family is an official family, the Wei family and the Zhou family are both engaged in business, but the Gu family is the only one who gets rich by sucking blood. Although it is said that there are no wealthy gentry in the ancient times who do not **** blood, even blood sucking has its own severity. A gang like the Gu family, which runs casinos, pawns, loans usury, and collects protection fees, does not even have a face, and has been forced to death many times. Zheng Shufeng will definitely look down on him.
Not only does she look down on him, but also Jin, Zhang, Zhou and other families.
For such a family, they want to marry their daughter to Wei Tianchong as a concubine. How can Zheng Shufeng accept it?
It’s not that Wei Danbai didn’t know this. The problem was that the conditions given by the Gu family were so good that he couldn’t help but be tempted. Not to mention anything else, the two **** agencies and the **** shop alone made Wei Danbai's heart flutter. This is all controlled by the Gu family Chapter 3 Concubinage
The business in my heart is usually not touched by others, but now it is like giving the opportunity to the Wei family.
Others spend money taking concubines, but my own son can make money by taking concubines and open up financial resources. What could be better than this?
The couple had been arguing about this for many days. When Tang Jie and Wei Tianchong came back at this time, it was like they were plunging into the whirlpool. Now that I am talking about this, I hope they will take a stand.
Wei Tianchong's attitude is the most critical, and Tang Jie's attitude can directly affect Wei Tianchong.
Now that he understood what had happened, Wei Tianchong was the first to jump up: "I won't marry!"
Zheng Shufeng smiled happily.
"I won't marry anyone!"
Zheng Shufeng's face dropped.
The manager next to him, Qin, hurriedly stepped forward to dissuade him: "Young Master, don't be arrogant. You are a member of the Wei family, and it is your duty to stay for the Wei family."
"You have a big brother, why do you have to find me?"
Zheng Shufeng said: "That's different. Your eldest brother has limited qualifications and has no chance of becoming an immortal. Now that you are out of the mortal body, the children you will give birth to will only have better qualifications. If the Wei family will become a family of immortal cultivators in the future, it will still fall on you. ."
Thousands of changes in Qixia Realm have already confirmed that the children of cultivators are indeed more qualified than ordinary children in a certain probability.
If a mortal family wants to develop into a cultivating family, it needs a large number of talents that can be created.
Zheng Shufeng has undoubtedly regarded Wei Tianchong as the hope for the future prosperity of the Wei family, and that is why he wants him to have more children.
It's just that for Wei Tianchong, he is still at the stage where he only likes flowers but not fruits at his current age, and has absolutely no interest in becoming an excellent stallion.
Zheng Shufeng saw that he was so determined and did not force him. She just said calmly: "Over the years, my family has spent a lot of money on your cultivation of immortality. I don't ask you for anything else, I just ask that you can stay for the Wei family. A little bit of blood, I didn’t expect that I couldn’t even agree with this. Alas, as people say, the immortal family has been the most ruthless since ancient times. Once a person becomes an immortal, he will often be ruthless and never care about the mortal family. Just like the one on the tree Flowers think they are noble, and no longer care about the clouds and mud in the world, let alone remember who made them so noble."
Wei Tianchong's face turned red when he heard this: "Mom, what do you mean, I...I..."
He called me several times, but I couldn't come out.
Zheng Shufeng had already stood up and said: "There is no rush in this matter. You should think about it carefully first."
As soon as Zheng Shufeng left, the other Wei family members also dispersed, leaving only Wei Tianchong, Tang Jie and others in the yard.
Wei Tianchong was still stunned and dizzy. Apparently he still hadn’t figured out how a visit to relatives at home suddenly turned into this situation. Tang Jie stepped forward and patted him and said: "After eating, what are you doing here?" ."
"Go...where?" Wei Tianchong asked blankly.
"Just walk around, no matter what, you have been away from home for many years, you have a concubine in Chapter 3
Aren’t you going to look around? Many things in this Wei Mansion have changed. "Tang Jie replied with profound meaning.
"Yeah, a lot of things have changed." Wei Tianchong sighed.
So the three of them strolled around the mansion together.
The Wei Mansion is very large, with halls, terraces, pavilions, flower corridors and waterside pavilions everywhere. Along the way, family members would pass by from time to time. When they saw Wei Tian rushing towards them, they all saluted. Occasionally, there will be low voices of discussion:
"That is the young master of the Wei family. I heard that he is a master who has lost his flesh and bone body while still in the academy. I really can't tell."
"Yes, yes, I heard that the two people next to me used to be servant students, but now they are also masters."
"Wouldn't that mean that you would become a noble person by leaping into the sky?"
"That's natural. I heard that the master and his wife are also looking for someone for them, but they still need to see each other."
"Then you have to work hard. If Mr. Tang takes a fancy to you, just mention it to the wife, and the wife will definitely accept you as her adopted daughter."
“You **** girl, I’m so glib, how can anyone like me?”
This last sentence revealed his thoughts, and a burst of laughter followed.
Wei Tianchong felt very depressed after hearing this: "It turns out it's not just me, but you are also there. But my parents will not go against your wishes or forcefully arrange things for you... Oh, I said this is wrong! I am Young Master, how come I don’t have the right to choose as a young master, but you can do whatever you like?”
Shi Meng smiled and said: "Who do you think I am your father and mother? My father and mother arrange the marriage for their son, so it is not up to you to make the decision."
Wei Tianchong's suppressed face turned red and blue: "So, I still have to agree to my parents?"
"That's not necessarily the case." Tang Jie said leisurely.
The two looked at Tang Jie together, and Wei Tian said anxiously: "Tang Jie, you don't want me to openly disobey my parents, do you? You can't do this!"
Tang Jie did not answer.
Standing under a mulberry tree, Tang Jie looked into the distance. In the dim light was the garden where he once worked.
He looked there and said leisurely: "Master, have you ever thought about why you practice immortality?"
"Why cultivate immortality?" Wei Tianchong was startled.
Yes, why do you want to become an immortal?
He has never really thought about this question.
A long time ago, what he envied was the immortals' ability to fly into the sky and escape from the earth, and to be able to change in countless ways.
When he became an immortal, this envy gradually faded and receded. Even Wei Tianchong didn’t know why he wanted to become an immortal.
Tang Jie has said: "A cultivator pursues and pursues all his life, but in fact there are only a few things. Maybe he hears about it and is admired by the world, or he lives the same life as heaven and earth and is immortal, or he indulges in heaven and earth and is free in this life. To sum it up, in fact, we should study Chapter 3 of Taking Concubines
What the immortal cultivates is just four words... do whatever you want. ”
"Do whatever you want." Wei Tianchong and Shi Meng murmured that they were born at the same time.
Yes!
What is heard is heard all over the world, and how the world and the earth share the same longevity, isn’t that the same thing after all?
Those who pursue immortality, don’t they also seek freedom?
Tang Jie pursues freedom, doesn’t he like immortality?
The essence of cultivating immortality is to cultivate whatever you want!
If you become an immortal and have to be bound by the rules of the mortal world, what's the point?
In the end, you need to transcend to become an immortal!
At that moment Wei Tianchong understood what Tang Jie meant.
How can practitioners follow their heart's desires and be restricted by ordinary rules?
Zheng Shufeng has never practiced immortality, so no matter how smart she is, she will not understand this change in mentality. The most important thing is that Zheng Shufeng is a woman and a mother!
The latter directly determines her attitude towards Wei Tianchong, so she respects Tang Jie and the others based on their status, but does not regard her son as a cultivator, because Zheng Shufeng can be sober in anything, only this mother's mentality Can't wake up.
And Wei Tianchong has not truly reached the transcendent realm of the immortal family psychologically. Transcendence is just a noun to him, so he does not realize the power of his words.
A simple sentence: The son has grown up and has reached the point where he can control the destiny of others. However, neither parents nor children are used to and adapt to this change.
It wasn't until Tang Jie reminded him that Wei Tianchong suddenly woke up.
At that moment, his eyes suddenly became piercing.
He nodded and said: "I know what to do."
————————————————
The lobby of the Wei Mansion.
Wei Danbai and Zheng Shufeng sat on each side, neither of them speaking.
They had just had a quarrel, and the two of them were furious at the moment, and neither wanted to pay attention to the other.
The servants in both places were trembling with fear, and no one dared to speak.
At this moment, I heard a sudden sound of wind outside the hall, blowing the lights hanging high by the road to flicker on and off.
This wind came unexpectedly. Just when Wei Danbai and Zheng Shufeng were in shock, they heard a loud bang outside.
Then the two saw a huge stone man falling from the sky.
This stone man was tall, kneeling on one knee, and the road paved with bluestone slabs was smashed until it cracked, like a spider web.
At this moment, he slowly stood up, turned his back to the lobby, and knelt down to the outside. He heard the howling wind in the air, and countless ferocious monsters jumped out, making a loud noise, which scared Wei Danbai and Zheng Shufeng to retreat at the same time.
But I saw those little monsters spreading out along both sides of the road, forming two columns, as if they were lined up to welcome them.
Then I saw something floating in the distance. It looked like a whirlwind, but it had a head and a face. It had a strange image. It was lifted up by two wind arms, but it was a cloud. Chapter 3 Concubinage
Color.
There is a person standing on the clouds, it is Wei Tianchong, but now he is wearing a long robe, his expression is solemn, and there is no trace of his previous unruly attitude.
"Chong'er!" Wei Danbai and Zheng Shufeng shouted at the same time.
Wei Tianchong waved his left hand, and the stone man stepped forward and squatted down.
Wei Tianchong raised his feet and walked down from the clouds, using the stone as a ladder, and landed on the ground without touching it. He just floated three inches above the ground and directly towards the lobby.
The couple were stunned to see such a method and such a performance, even the master they raised at home had never seen anyone use it.
It was only then that they realized that their son was no longer a human being, but a powerful being who came out of Xiyue Academy and was countless times more powerful than the otherworldly masters they raised at home.
At this moment, Wei Tianchong floated directly to the main seat in the lobby, sat in the seat where his father had been sitting, cupped his hands in front of the couple, and said: "What my mother just said, I have considered it. Something is wrong with this matter."
He did not use this to pretend to be so cool that he would not recognize his parents. He just used the power of his appearance to reorganize his image, and then said: "It is not a wrong thing to leave a descendant for the Wei family and carry on the family line. But once you come, With the eldest brother by his side, the Wei family is not worried about having an heir. Secondly, even if he wants to keep an heir, he still needs to find someone who agrees with him. How can he act in a hurry just because of his parents' orders? I am a Taoist who is detached from the world, and my heart is On the great road, the most important thing is to act without going against your true intentions. If you miss the opportunity to practice cultivation because of such a trivial matter, then the parents’ sin will be much greater."
The couple were shocked when they heard this.
Zheng Shufeng also wanted to explain, but Wei Tianchong raised his hand to stop them. With a wave of his hand, two chairs automatically flew under the couple's buttocks, and then he said: "Sit!"
The couple sat down involuntarily.
Wei Tianchong then said: "I know that the two elders are thinking about the family's thousand-year legacy, and it is not an exaggeration to think so. So I have decided to use these days when I go home to visit relatives to pay close attention to Canglong Mansion. If If there is a girl who suits my needs, I will know my parents and come to propose marriage. Then I will treat her well. If I can have children, it will be the best. But if I don’t meet her, there is no need to worry. I am now If you succeed in transcending the world, you will enter the immortal sect, your life span will increase, and it is not uncommon to live for two or three hundred years. You will have the opportunity to leave descendants."
As he spoke, Wei Tian rushed to slap the mustard bag~IndoMTL.com~A medicine bottle flew out of the bag.
Wei Tianchong pointed at the medicine bottle, and two pills flew out of the bottle, flying to Zheng Shufeng and his wife. They caught them, and Wei Tianchong said: "My two brothers gave birth to me and raised me, Tianchong is grateful. The sun is getting deeper. However, I am on the great road, and I am afraid that many things cannot be controlled by myself. Please forgive me for any inconveniences. This medicine is a life-prolonging pill. I specially invited it to increase the longevity of my two elders. It also fulfills the filial piety of the son of man and returns it. Please accept it. There are two more pills for the old man and his wife. I will deliver them myself."
As he spoke, Wei Tian rushed and waved his hand again, and the medicine bottle flew back to his hand automatically. Chapter 3: Taking Concubines
In.
Wei Danbai still wanted to speak, but Wei Tianchong had already stood up and said: "As for the Gu family, I know you have received some benefits from them. I will go to them personally to talk to them and withdraw from this family. Yes. Okay, that’s the end of the matter. If there’s anything else, let’s talk about it later.”
As he spoke, the person drifted out of the hall.
The couple were so shocked that they couldn't help but blurt out: "Congratulations to the immortal."
When he finished speaking, he remembered that this was his son.
