Chapter 218 Visiting Nalan’s Family
Chapter 218 Visiting Nalan’s Family
Seeing the little medical fairy who called his name but kept standing there with a frown on his face, Xiao Yan looked at her and asked cautiously.
"Um, little medical fairy, is something wrong?"
Seeing the hesitant Xiao Yan on his face, the little medical fairy sighed heavily again, and then said softly.
"It's okay." The little medical fairy put one hand on Liu's waist and tilted her head to Xiao Yan, "Didn't Jia Lao give you a mission? Go now."
"what"
Xiao Yan nodded blankly, raised his brows in confusion, but said nothing more.
And judging from the little medical fairy's current appearance, he should be no longer angry, and Xiao Yan's clenched heart has finally relaxed.
Although he still doesn't know why the little medical fairy is angry.
Then Xiao Yan and his party asked on the street and walked towards Nalan's house. Xiao Yan had been here ten years ago, but the current Gama Holy City has changed a lot from what it was ten years ago, not to mention that it was still Xiao Yan's memories of his childhood are naturally not very clear.
After walking for ten minutes in the direction pointed by passers-by, Xiao Yan and his party finally arrived at the gate of Nalan's house.
"Not much has changed here."
Xiao Yan stroked his chin and murmured. Except for the "Nalan Mansion" on the top of the door, which had a new plaque, the rest of the place was similar to the vague memories of his childhood.
I remember that at that time, I seemed to be here to deliver the letter that my grandfather wrote before his death?
Xiao Yan couldn't help but start to recall the reasons for coming to Nalan Mansion, while the little medical fairy looked at the plaque above his head and frowned slightly.
This is Nalan's house, which means that after they enter, Xiao Yan will meet his fiancée Nalan Yanran again.
When the time comes, there will definitely be another secret battle between him and her, so he must be prepared in advance.
After all, Nalan Yanran has the title of fiancée, which is enough to be called a murder weapon, and her current relationship with Xiao Yan is nothing more than friends. Even if she falls in love with Xiao Yan, it is only one-sided.
Just as the little medical fairy was brainstorming, Xiao Yan stepped forward and looked at the two handles at the door.
On both sides of the gate are embedded a bronze and iron lion head, and the bronze lion holds an iron ring in its mouth.
Xiao Yan stretched out his hand and gently pinched the iron ring. He smashed the door three times with the iron ring talking about it, and then stepped back and waited quietly.
After a while, the heavy door in front of Xiao Yan and his party was slowly opened. An old man who looked like a housekeeper looked at Xiao Yan and his party. His old pupils first looked around, and when he saw the little lion king, a look of confusion emerged in his eyes. A flash of surprise quickly turned into a look of astonishment.
The housekeeper stepped out from the crack in the door, put his hands in front of him and inserted them into the cuffs of his arms to bow to everyone, and asked slowly in an old voice.
"Everyone, you must be friends of the young lady, right? The young lady told the old slave about your characteristics when she came back earlier, saying that you might come here to find her, and then let me take you in directly." The housekeeper said this, looking at Looking at Xiao Yan who was standing at the front, "If I guess correctly, this should be my future uncle, right?"
"Um."
When he heard the housekeeper address him, Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, then scratched the side of his face in embarrassment and nodded in response.
He is Nalan Yanran's fiancé, but it's okay for the Nalan family's housekeeper to call him his future uncle.
However, Xiao Yan was just embarrassed, but the little medical fairy beside him was a little unhappy.
The housekeeper's word "uncle" sounded so harsh to the little medical fairy's ears.
Immediately, the little medical fairy suddenly noticed that while there was an embarrassed look on his face, there should be a trace of doubt and confusion in Xiao Yan's eyes, and his brows were slightly frowned.
At this moment, the housekeeper turned around and pushed the door open, sincerely welcoming Xiao Yan and his party.
"Everyone, please come in. I will take you to meet the young lady and the master."
After finishing speaking, the housekeeper turned around to lead the way, while the little medical fairy asked Xiao Yan in a confused voice.
"Xiao Yan, what's wrong?"
She could clearly see the confusion in Xiao Yan's eyes just now. Xiao Yan must be feeling very strange about something.
However, Xiao Yan did not answer immediately to the Little Medical Fairy's question. He just shook his head slightly and glanced at the Little Medical Fairy and others.
"Let's go in."
Looking at Xiao Yan who was following the butler, the little medical fairy frowned.
Xiao Yan must have discovered something wrong.
But since Xiao Yan didn't say anything, he naturally had his own considerations, and the little medical fairy would not force him to say it. He, Ziyun Qinglin and the little lion king followed and entered the Nalan family's mansion.
I have to say that Nalan's family is really big. Even Xiao Yan can't help but sigh in his heart. This is much bigger than his own family.
Ziyun was also looking at this luxurious mansion all the way. If she were herself in Warcraft, this mansion would be nothing to her, but now when she looks at it as a human, she is really a little shocked.
"Are all your human houses this big?"
Zi Yun looked sideways at the little medical fairy and asked, while the little medical fairy waved her hands helplessly.
"How is that possible? This mansion is among the best in the Jiama Empire."
Ziyun came from the mountains, so it was normal for her not to know, but as an ordinary person, the Little Medical Fairy knew this very well.
Take the Wanyaozhai in Qingshan Town as an example. It has only two floors, with a shop below and people living above. Don’t even think about a yard. That’s not something ordinary people like the Little Medical Fairy can enjoy.
Even so, the Wanyaozhai house is considered quite wealthy among the common people in Qingshan Town.
After answering Zi Yun's question, the little medical fairy scanned the rather large courtyard and frowned tightly.
Until this moment, she finally realized firsthand what the status gap was and what the gap between rich and poor was.
I would be overjoyed because I found more than 100 million gold coins from the cave, but in the eyes of the Nalan family, these 100 million gold coins are probably about the same as drizzle.
At least in this aspect, the conditions between myself and Nalan Yanran are naturally very different.
Of course, the Little Medical Fairy does not think that Xiao Yan is the kind of person who despises poverty and loves wealth. Otherwise, as the future uncle of the Nalan family, he would not be friends with himself and Boss Yao, let alone a common girl like himself. Risk your life.
But there was one thing that the little medical fairy had to admit.
It's very important to be a good match.
What a well-matched person looks for is not only family status, but also the education and concepts that both men and women have received over the years. Two people who are not from the same family may have completely opposite views when faced with the same problem. will be more acceptable.
In short, Xiao Yan's fiancée is quite difficult.
Although Xiao Yan's attitude towards Nalan Yanran is the same as his attitude towards himself, they just treat her as a friend.
Although this made the little medical fairy feel angry, she felt lucky at the same time.
After all, if Xiao Yan didn't have such an attitude, I'm afraid there would be no room for him to intervene between the two of them.
However, as both women, and after experiencing the previous conversation with Nalan Yanran in the commercial street, the Little Medical Fairy was completely convinced that Nalan Yanran's feelings for Xiao Yan were by no means limited to his fiancée.
She wanted to remove the word "unmarried" from the bottom of her heart.
Trouble.
While the little medical fairy was thinking hard about how to deal with Nalan Yanran, a difficult opponent, the housekeeper also took the group to a house, stepped forward and knocked lightly on the door.
"Master, Master Xiao Yan and his friends are here."
"Xiao Yan is here?!" As soon as the housekeeper finished speaking, the door of the room was opened from the inside, and Nalan Yanran's obviously happy look appeared in front of Xiao Yan and others.
What he saw next was Nalan Jie sitting in the house.
"Xiao Yan, you are here."
Seeing the grandson of his old friend arriving, Nalan Jie's expression relaxed. Nalan Yanran stepped out of the threshold and reached out to grab Xiao Yan's arm without any scruples and pulled him into the house.
"Come in and sit down! I'm chatting with grandpa!"
Facing such enthusiastic Nalan Yanran, Xiao Yan was really embarrassed to refuse and allowed her to pull him into the house.
When the little medical fairy saw this scene, her brows twitched, her silver teeth clenched secretly, and she and the little lion king with green scales and purple rhymes also entered the house.
Looking at Xiao Yan sitting next to Nalan Jie, and Nalan Yanran sitting next to Xiao Yan looking at him with a smile, the little doctor clenched his fairy powder fist slightly, breathed a deep sigh of relief in his heart, and pulled Qing Lin Sitting opposite Xiao Yan.
Ziyun also sat down, leaning unceremoniously on the back of the chair and crossing her legs, reaching out and gently stroking the head of the little lion crouching next to the chair.
When he saw the little lion king with his eyes closed and enjoying Ziyun's caress, Nalan Jie's pupils suddenly shrank.
Even Mu Zhan could recognize that the little Lion King was the cub of the Amethyst Winged Lion King, and Nalan Jie, the Lion-Hearted Marshal, had no reason not to recognize him.
Looking at the outstanding temperament Zi Yun, recalling the fleeting fighting spirit of Jia Xingtian and another unknown fighting emperor coming from the direction of the commercial street, Nalan Jie had a guess in his mind.
The grudge confronting Jia Xingtian should be this purple-haired woman.
After seeing everyone seated, the housekeeper nodded to Nalan Jie in a sensible manner, then left the room and slowly closed the door.
"Grandpa Nalan, I heard from Jia Lao that you have not been in good health these past two days. Is there something wrong?"
Xiao Yan looked at Nalan Jie with worry in his eyes, and the little medical fairy seemed to have thought of what happened that day in the Tagor Desert. A trace of guilt flashed in his eyes. He was about to say something when he noticed her expression. Nalan Jie raised his hand to interrupt.
"Girl, don't worry, it has nothing to do with your incident. There is no need to feel guilty." Nalan Jie soothed the little medical fairy softly, and then looked at Xiao Yan and replied, "It's just that there have been a lot of things recently, which makes me a little bit a little nervous." I'm tired both physically and mentally, so I asked Jia Lao for permission to go home and rest for two days, it's nothing serious."
"That's it."
Xiao Yan breathed a sigh of relief. Like the Little Medical Fairy, he was also worried that there was something wrong with Nalan Jie's body because he helped the Little Medical Fairy suppress the soaring fighting spirit that day. Now it seemed that he was worrying too much.
Next, Xiao Yan had a casual chat with Nalan Jie, such as how the Xiao family is doing now. There were too many things going on when he was in the Snake Tribe, and there was no time for Nalan Jie and Xiao Yan, who had not seen each other in ten years. Let's have a good chat with the kids. This time we finally have a chance.
After some small talk, Nalan Jie turned his attention to Ziyun and asked softly.
"Xiao Yan, who is this?"
"She is Ziyun, a friend of mine, and the little Amethyst Winged Lion King is her son."
Anyway, the person in front of her is Nalan Jie, and Nalan Yanran also knows that Sister Ziyun is the Amethyst Winged Lion King, so there is no need to hide it.
"oh, I see."
After hearing Xiao Yan's answer, Nalan Jie didn't react immediately and nodded clearly.
Then his expression suddenly froze, and then he thought clearly about what Xiao Yan had just said.
Xiao Yan said that the little Amethyst Winged Lion King was this woman's son?
In this case, wouldn't this woman be the Amethyst Winged Lion King? !
Nalan Jie's eyes were full of shock, but they calmed down after a few seconds.
Presumably this was the person who confronted Jia Lao in the direction of the commercial street earlier.
Since he can follow Xiao Yan to Nalan's house, it proves that Jia Lao has determined that Zi Yun will not pose a threat and there is no need to worry.
At this time, Xiao Yan opened his mouth to Nalan Jie.
"Grandpa Nalan, I want to talk to you about something."
Nalan Jie frowned slightly, thinking that Xiao Yan had just met Jia Xingtian, and understood something in his heart, and glanced at Nalan Yanran beside Xiao Yan without trace.
I couldn't help but feel a little sad.
(It seems that Jia Lao still can’t trust Yan Ran)
Nalan Jie sighed like this, but he also understood that this could not be blamed on Jia Xingtian.
He is the leader of a country and is responsible for the entire Jia Ma Empire, so it is only natural to be suspicious.
If you really want to blame, you should blame yourself.
He should not have agreed to let Nalan Yanran go to Yunlan Sect in the first place.
Immediately, Nalan Jie looked at Nalan Yanran.
"Yanran, take these guests to the living room and entertain them while Xiao Yan and I talk alone."
"what"
Nalan Yanran nodded, with some doubts in her eyes.
Grandpa, have you ever seen Xiao Yan?
With such questions in his mind, he stood up and took the Little Medical Fairy and others out of the house very politely. The Little Medical Fairy glanced at Xiao Yan and silently followed Nalan Yanran away.
Xiao Yan, Xiao Yan has his own business.
The little medical fairy looked at Nalan Yanran's back in front of her, her emerald green eyes flickering.
And I also have my own things to do.
After everyone else left, Xiao Yan first made sure that no one was eavesdropping around the room, and then told Nalan Jie the instructions given by Jia Xingtian in the palace.
After hearing this, Nalan Jie pondered for a moment and nodded slightly.
"I know, I will ask the housekeeper to handle it later. I won't let anyone else know about it, including Yanran."
The old housekeeper has been serving Nalan's family since he was young and teaches him how to handle things. Nalan Jie is absolutely at ease.
However, Xiao Yan frowned after hearing Nalan Jie's words.
After a while, he looked at Nalan Jie and asked in a low voice.
"Grandpa Nalan, is that housekeeper the same person as the housekeeper I met when I came here to visit ten years ago?"
After all, it was a childhood memory. Xiao Yan had only met the housekeeper once, and his impression was indeed not very deep, so he asked like this.
Nalan Jie heard Xiao Yan's question and nodded slightly.
"It's the same person, he has been staying at Nalan's house for decades." Then Nalan Jie seemed to realize what Xiao Yan wanted to say, and frowned slightly, "What's wrong?"
Xiao Yan lowered his head and thought for a moment, then looked at Nalan Jie.
"I think he may not be the same housekeeper I met ten years ago."
