I studied abroad in modern times

"You're not going?" The eldest lady narrowed her eyes, looked at her younger brother, and said word for word: "I worked hard and tried my best to invite Senior Sister Zhang back to you with the help of my ancestors' friendship, but you said you won't go. ? I’ll give you a chance to answer again!”

"No!" The seventh young master shrank his neck, but still refused.

"Zhao! Shock! Fan!" The eldest lady clenched her fists: "Don't force me to beat you as soon as I come back!"

Listening to this familiar sentence, the seventh young master seemed to think of some painful memories, and his answer was much softer: "Zheng Fa moved a pile of books back home every day and stayed up late to draw these symbols for me..."

The eldest lady's face was slightly stunned, and the anger on her face slowly froze, as if she didn't expect him to give such a reason.

Listening to the seventh young master continue to say: "He has worked so hard. If I don't let him teach me now, won't he feel that all his hard work has been wasted? Will he think that I look down on him? How can I be so unloyal!"

"That's what you're doing?"

The seventh young master nodded, his tone a little depressed: "If I hadn't seen him working so hard, I would have run away. How can a small cane stop me?"

The eldest lady looked at her younger brother, the anger on her face gradually faded away, and instead she showed a smile: "We haven't seen you for ten years, and I was worried that you would grow crooked. Now it seems that you are more sensible than I thought."

"I'm not stupid, how can I not know who is good to me?" The seventh young master heard his sister praising him and snorted with his nose, feeling quite proud: "Anyway, let Zheng Fa teach me! I think I have made great progress! Don't What is that, Senior Sister Zhang!”

Seeing him like this, the eldest lady's tone became softer: "It's all his hard work. Don't act like a child. It will be better for you to follow Senior Sister Zhang's example!"

"No!"

"Zhao Jingfan! Do you really think that you have grown up and can stop listening to me?" The eldest lady was obviously really angry when she saw that he refused to obey me. She looked around and picked up Zheng Faru Teng Teng here is pretending to teach his younger brother a lesson.

"Even if you beat me until I stay in bed for another three months, I won't go!" the seventh young master said, squeezing his neck.

Seeing the younger brother who was confronting her, the eldest lady raised the cane, and the seventh young master really closed his eyes and did not dodge.

She waved her hand and the cane hit the seventh young master's arm.

"It hurts!" The seventh young master cried out in pain, his tone was miserable.

"Okay! Why are you pretending? I've been like this since I was a child. I screamed when the stick didn't hit me. There's no mark on my butt and my voice is hoarse." The eldest lady rolled her eyes.

"Sister! I know you're not willing to exert force!" The seventh young master chuckled.

"You..." The eldest lady threw the cane away, shook her head and said, "Whether you want to learn this from Senior Sister Zhang or not is up to you. This is related to whether you can enter the Immortal Sect through the Immortal Grade Association."

Seeing that the Seventh Young Master was still talking, the eldest lady continued: "This time the Immortal Grade Fair will be more strict than before, and the double spiritual roots may not be rated as top grade."

The seventh young master's expression changed slightly.

"If you can't enter the Qingmu Sect through the Immortal Association, then I can only use my personal attendant quota to take you there." The eldest lady looked at the seventh young master: "At that time, my mother promised to give Zheng Fa the personal attendant quota. I can only give it to you but not to him, do you understand?”

The seventh young master was silent, and the eldest lady knew that he had listened this time.

"You go and learn from Senior Sister Zhang and successfully enter the Immortal Sect. He can also be taken to the Qingmu Sect by me. It's good for you and good for him."

After a long time, she saw her brother nodding. Just when she was about to give him a happy smile, she heard the seventh young master say:

"But I have to tell Zheng Fa first to prevent him from misunderstanding!"

"..."

Walking on the way to the Zheng family courtyard, the eldest lady frowned slightly and asked the seventh young master: "As soon as I came back, when I heard the name Zheng Fa, my ears became calloused, as if there was no one else in the house. Mom also told me that you value him so much, who is he? "

"Zheng Fa..." The seventh young master scratched his head, as if he didn't know how to describe it. He held it in for a long time before speaking:

"He is very smart. He started learning runes from me. Half a month is worth what I learned in several years."

The eldest lady nodded and said, "What else?"

"Also, he has a good talent in martial arts. My mother gave him the "Spiritual Crane Body" and said that no one in the world would be able to master it, and he also mastered it."

The eldest lady still had no expression on her face and just said: "That's all? Does it make you care so much?"

"He is usually not very respectful to me and doesn't act like a book boy...but he is actually very good to me." The seventh young master pursed his lips and said, "My mother has plotted against him and scared him, but in fact it was all for me. He's so smart, he shouldn't be able to see it."

"But he has never angered me. He still stayed up late to draw talisman diagrams for me and was willing to teach me the secret techniques..." The seventh young master turned around and looked at his sister with his big teeth and a smile: "Sister, don't worry, your brother is growing up." He’s so old, he’s really not stupid.”

The eldest lady sighed: "Your temperament since childhood has been to love others and desire them to live in evil and to desire them to die. Do you suffer a lot because of this? How can I not worry?"

The seventh young master curled his lips and wanted to refute.

"What kind of person is this Zheng Fa? It's up to you. I'll see for myself." The eldest lady didn't say whether she believed what her brother said or not. She just said, "It's just good or bad for you, but you have to know , He is just one of the servants of the Zhao family."

"sister?"

"Zhao Mansion looks big, but what does it mean compared to Qingmu Sect? Compared to Hundred Immortals Alliance? Compared to the entire world of immortal cultivation?" The eldest lady turned to look at her younger brother: "His talent may be outstanding in Zhao Mansion, but compared to What about those geniuses in the world of immortality? Apart from anything else, his talents are insignificant in front of Senior Sister Zhang."

The seventh young master looked at her blankly.

"The world of immortality is vast. Maybe if you go there, you will find that Zheng Fa is nothing more than that. Just like your sister and I, we used to imagine that we had extraordinary talents..."

As she spoke, she closed her mouth, as if she didn't want to speak anymore.

A trace of distress flashed across the face of the seventh young master, and he pursed his lips, as if he was unwilling to refute his sister at this moment.

But the eldest lady changed the subject: "Remember, it's okay to get close to Zheng Fa, but don't give up such a good opportunity like Senior Sister Zhang for the sake of loyalty like today. Do you understand?"

The Seventh Young Master was still a little unconvinced: "Zheng Fa is still valued by the True Yuan Ying! I follow Zheng Fa and I am also the true successor of the Yuanying!"

Seeing that he was still retorting, the eldest lady sneered: "Senior Sister Zhang, her master is the real Yuanying! She is the most famous talisman genius in the Hundred Immortals League, can she not be compared to Zheng Fa? Zheng Fa and Senior Sister Zhang, one is in the sky and the other is on the ground. , do you understand?”

No matter how talented the Seventh Young Master felt that Zheng Fa was talented, at this time he did not dare to say that Zheng Fa was better than Senior Sister Zhang.

"Also, although Senior Sister Zhang is not bad-tempered, she doesn't like to talk nonsense with others. She is willing to come to the Zhao family because our ancestors have an old relationship with her elders. She is..." The eldest lady hesitated and described: "I'm only obsessed with talismans and arithmetic. I'm not interested in anything else. I usually seem aloof. It's not directed at you."

"sister……"

"Um?"

"Senior Sister Zhang, does she like to wear a blue Taoist robe?"

"How do you know?"

"She has big eyes and a straight nose."

The eldest lady was even more confused: "Have you seen it?"

"When she smiles, does she have a small dimple on the left side of her face?"

The seventh young master did not answer, but continued to ask.

"She... I really didn't notice this." The eldest lady frowned: "She doesn't like to smile much. I haven't seen her smile a few times, and I didn't notice whether she has dimples."

"I saw her smiling quite happily."

The seventh young master pointed to the left, and the eldest lady couldn't help but look in the direction he pointed.

This is a small courtyard with the door open, facing the lobby.

In the lobby, Senior Sister Zhang, who doesn't like to smile, is holding a pen, with the corners of her mouth raised and a smile like a flower, saying something to the man opposite.

Well, there are small dimples, and the smile is quite sweet...
