Before night fell, Ming Ying carried a basket of small tomatoes and sat beside the newly set up barbecue.

    She and Du Yunxin picked a lot of fruits and vegetables, half of them were kept for barbecue, and half of Du Yunxin was used for cooking.

    The smell of cooking quickly spread from the wooden house next to it.

    The barbecue grill is located in the public area, Ming Ying sat next to Fu Anyu, eating tomatoes, ignoring all kinds of eyes around her, watching her with focus and curiosity as she put the skewers on the grill , pour the seasoning and flip from time to time, and the movements are skillful.

    Chen Yan was in charge of skewering the ingredients. The sharp metal skewers could turn out flowers even in her hands. The pieces of meat and vegetables were neatly and evenly skewered, and they filled the countertop in no time.

    Even though the fox ears were put away, Ming Ying's hearing was not affected. She soon heard very small voices:

    "Why didn't Mr. Fu sit with her fiancé?"

     "Don't say, Mr. Fu is basically staying with her sister today."

    "In the afternoon, I also saw that Mr. Fu's sister suffered from heat stroke while fishing, and was carried back to the hotel by Mr. Fu himself."

    "Speaking of which, I have been employed for so many years, and I have never heard of Mr. Fu's sister who is so beautiful."

    "Maybe the 'sister' is the young lady of a wealthy family, anyway, the identity and financial resources are hanging the man who guards the Taoism."

    "Shh, don't delve into this secret."

    Hearing these words, Ming Ying's mood was good for a second, but it was instantly cloudy.

    When she was in the royal city before, she overheard the maids or guards talking about their parents in private, or about other clansmen with official positions. I didn’t expect that there would be so many broken-mouthed servants in the human world. .

    ...No, in Human World's words, she should call those people "employees" or "subordinates", and those people are only bound to Fu Anyu's company in terms of contract terms, and cannot be counted as subordinates.

    Since she is not a servant, she cannot punish her.

    Ming Ying could only stare at those people from a distance, just as she was getting angry, a skewer of pure meat was suddenly handed in front of her, with a fragrant aroma.

    "Not happy?" Fu Anyu asked.

    Ming Ying gave a "hmm", took the skewer, still staring at the people with broken mouths, and said while eating: "The good mood was ruined by a few buzzing flies. ."

    Fu Anyu followed her gaze, glanced at it, and listened carefully for a while. Seeing that those people dispersed in a guilt, she asked Mingying in a low voice, "Do you reject marriage?"

    Ming Ying was frightened by the word "marriage", she looked at Fu Anyu in amazement, and was about to say "no rejection", but when the words came to her mouth, she turned: "It depends Who are you marrying?"

    Fu Anyu narrowed her eyes slightly.

    "In three days, I will publicly announce our relationship." She said, "If it goes well, the wedding can be held in the middle of this month."

    Ming Ying was just frightened just now, but she still has reason, but now she is frightened and stared at Fu Anyu dumbly.

    "If you are willing to socialize and develop personal connections, then after marrying me, you have to learn a lot." Fu Anyu continued.

    Ming Ying just regained her senses and asked cautiously, "But we just started to learn to fall in love, will we..."

    "You can marry first and then fall in love." Fu Anyu stopped, "Of course, if you think it's not yet time, you can postpone it, it depends on you."

    Ming Ying didn't know if this was an alternative confession from President Bingshan. She felt that if she was from this world, she might agree to it without hesitation.

    But she is not, she still has a lot to learn, she is afraid that it will cause trouble to Fu Anyu after marriage.

    "I, I want to ask the third sister's meaning first..." Mingying stammered, "she is my family and elder after all, if I agree to get married without authorization, three sister…"

    "Okay." Before she could finish making up the reason, Fu Anyu nodded, "It doesn't matter, it's up to you."

    She can see the hesitation of the little fox, but no matter what the reason is, she can wait.

    After finishing this topic, when Mingying eats barbecue again, the whole fox is wooden.

    What did she just do?

    Did she reject Fu Anyu's proposal in disguise? ? !

    But her first reaction was that she was afraid that she would become a burden to Fu Anyu, and be laughed at behind the scenes by those who had broken mouths with Hu Xiuli.

    However, Hu Xiuli is still a serious demon slayer, and he has inherited a Taoist temple with a long tradition. According to the black cat, he also has a lot of monthly royalties.

    —Compared to Hu Xiuli, she is nothing but a waste of spiritual power and cute appearance.

    As soon as this thought started, Ming Ying woke up instantly.

    How could she be so arrogant! Hu Xiuli tried her best to find an opportunity to match them, but she began to back off!

    She has hands, feet, and brains, she doesn't know anything, she just has to study hard, learn the peak, and walk shoulder to shoulder with her lover, isn't it a matter of course!

    Ming Ying regained her energy and began to look forward to seeing her third sister, who recovered to health soon.

    If it wasn't for Dr. He's repeated warnings that she was not allowed to disturb the patient's rest, she would now ask Dr. He to help open a video call, let her meet the third sister, and confess that she is about to marry Fu Anyu, Then tell Fu Anyu that the third sister has agreed that they can choose the date of their marriage.

    The villa soon sank into the night, and it was pitch black, only the fire of the barbecue grill and the lights in the house still illuminated the surroundings.

    Because the previous owner of the villa arrived at night, Ming Ying and his party canceled the plan to soak in the hot spring or swim, and went to the lounge of Diaoyutai together to wait.

    At about 7:30, the door of the lounge was suddenly opened, and two young women dressed in the same clothes came in, looking like bodyguards. In the center, walking slowly with a cane.

    Feeling the rich spiritual energy flowing on the surface of the old man's body, Ming Ying was stunned, and then she saw other people stand up, and she quickly stood up, but hid behind Fu Anyu.

    "Senior, why are you here?" Hu Xiuli asked in surprise.

    "The sleeping place of my deceased sister and her best friend was discovered by the top. Of course I have to come and deal with it myself." When the old man explained slowly, his tone was still a bit resentful, as if he was blaming them have a finger in the pie.

    She sat down on the hard sofa opposite Ming Ying and her party, handed the cane to the bodyguard standing on the right, and sighed.

     

    "Senior Rong, you mean that the Jiaojiao we found is your sister's best friend?" Fu Anyu asked.

    "Yes." The old man nodded slowly, "But as you can see, the isolation effect of the magic weapon is disappearing. When it completely fails, Senior Jiao will wake up."

    She breathed a sigh of relief, and continued: "I am too old, so I sent a junior demon slayer from the clan to take over the villa. Today, she is hiding something from you, and it is my instructing."

    Listening to her finishing the reason in a few words, Mingying couldn't help but ask: "Since that Jiaojiao is not an evil monster, why should it be locked in the water with a chain?"

    The old man glanced at Ming Ying without explaining, but just told a story to himself.

    She said that when she was young, one day her sister came back from washing her sword, but she was holding a strange woman in cyan ancient clothes with white hair and plain makeup.

    It turned out that when my sister was washing her sword on the shore, a flood dragon suddenly burst out of the water and turned into a woman in Tsing Yi, scolding her for washing the sword, stirring the water, destroying her cave, and claiming compensation from her.

    My sister smiled and said, she is not Nezha, this sword is just an ordinary magic weapon, where can there be a great magical power to stir the waters and destroy the underwater cave? Furthermore, it is not the first time that she has washed swords here.

    When the woman in Tsing Yi heard this, her face instantly blushed, and she stammered that her cave was gone. She had searched all over the water and couldn't find anything. Moreover, the waters and the waters where she lives seem to be different.

    "At that time, my sister asked her, 'Since you believe that I destroyed your cave, how do you pay for it, you are satisfied'." The old man continued to tell the story, "The woman in Tsing Yi hesitated for a long time, But let it go, she admitted that she was unlucky, turned around and was about to go back into the water, but was stopped by her sister."

    Ming Ying and others listened quietly, no one interrupted the old man's words.

    "My sister saw that she was ignorant and not pretending, so I invited her to come to the villa to explain the situation in detail." The old man said, "In the later conversation, my sister learned that the Jiaoyao woke up and found that the cave house was gone. After a few days of searching, I felt the sword intent that frightened the demon clan came from the water, and in a fit of anger, I mistakenly thought it was my sister who destroyed my cave, so I came out to find my sister to settle the account."

    "So...that Jiaoyao is actually a transmigrator?" Du Yunxin couldn't help but ask.

    The old man nodded: "Yes. However, there was no concept of 'traversing' at that time, plus the confrontation between human and demon, from the foot of the mountain to the gate of the villa, was covered by enchantment. There may be demons appearing out of thin air in the waters of the villa."

     "My sister is only a scorpion who slept underwater a long time ago, and the years of slumbering are too long, so she will not be able to find any trace of home. Seeing that the scorpion is kind, she let her live in the villa. Down."

    "The Jiaozhu River, although there is no supernatural power to call wind and rain, but it can rush to fish schools, store water and stop floods, and live for three years. People in the villa regard her as a **** and get along with her Harmony."

    Hearing this, Ming Ying wanted to ask why she wanted to lock up the Jiaoyao.

    A good demon should be beneficial and harmless to the human race.

    She was feeling itchy when she heard Du Yunxin ask what she cared about most: "Did something bad happen later?"

     "Later, the evil monster broke the barrier at the foot of the mountain and attacked the villa." The old man clenched his fists slightly, "My sister was seriously injured by the evil monster. When I carried her back to the villa, I heard the monster entrenched. The roar of the dragon came from the pond, and then a flash flood broke out, and all the evil monsters that came in were washed back down the mountain."

     "Later I learned that it was the Jiaoyao who was on the verge of death due to her sister's serious injuries, and caused a flash flood in a fit of rage, trying to keep the evil monster out."

      My sister killed herself to show her clan."

    "Sister naturally refused - the entire villa's life was saved by the flood of Jiaoyao. But she was on the verge of death at the time, and she was even more afraid that the Jiaoyao would apologize to herself after her death, so she called me Take out a magic weapon sealed by my late father, put myself into the magic weapon, turn it into a chain, and sink to the bottom of the water together with the monster."

     "And that magic weapon absorbed everything from my sister, and opened the barrier to block the demons, firmly protecting the entire villa."

    "I heard from the elders in the family, 'Linlan Villa' seems to be named by you?" Chen Yan suddenly asked.

    The old man smiled faintly, with nostalgia in his eyes: "The new name of this villa is indeed a word I took from the names of my sister and Jiao Yao."
