Longevity begins with Orion

The next morning, Li Yuan woke up from the big bed, hugged his wife and looked at the empty big house. He felt a little uncomfortable for a while.

He hurriedly washed up, ate breakfast on the spot, and then went out and walked deeper into the inner city.

Applying for the pass and filing it with Elder Liu went smoothly.

Obviously, Elder Liu has no intention of making things difficult for this rising star, not to mention that applying for a pass is a normal thing. After all, purchasing supplies and even daily purchases requires going out.

On weekdays, Elder Liu would not even review it himself, but would ask a steward in his yard to distribute it. She just happened to be here today, so she helped Li Yuan apply for it. However, long-term passes cannot be issued for the time being. This will have to wait until the situation outside becomes calmer.

After finishing it, Li Yuan returned.

The inner city is relatively empty, and there are almost no people on the road.

Inner disciples either practice at home or go out for entertainment, experience or perform tasks, and they will not wander around on the road.

Li Yuan grabbed the pass and walked along the Silver River. When he turned his head, he saw that the city walls on the north, south and west were like mountains, surrounding the place, giving people a comfortable sense of security.

Just as he was about to arrive home, another guard-like man came running from a distance, came to his side and said, "Little Master Li, the master of the sect has given an order for you to go to Xuenu Hall to meet him at noon in seven days."

"Thank you very much. I will definitely go there on time." Li Yuan bowed and didn't ask what the master wanted him to do.

This guard was sent by the sect master. His every move, word and deed would obviously be reported back. Why did he ask?

And these seven days should be the time the sect leader gave him to settle in, and then he would have to talk to him about something. After all, he, a disciple of the Blood Knife Sect, couldn't just do nothing and just get the benefits, right?

Afternoon.

Not yet

Before an ox cart arrived in the inner city, Li Yuan had been waiting there.

The car curtain was lifted, revealing the pretty face of the landlady.

"Sister Xue."

"Little Master Li."

The two greeted each other, Li Yuan showed the pass to the city gate guard, and the ox cart slowly entered the city.

Behind the car were three horses and a carriage, which were also gifts given to Li Yuan by the landlady. .

As for the oxcart carriage, pots and pans, pillows and quilt covers, flower pot decorations, and writing materials are all available.

After the landlady arrived at Li Yuan's mansion, she ordered people to tidy up the house.

In the evening, the originally empty house became a little more full.

The landlady was about to leave, but Yan Yu pulled her clothes and said, "Sister Xue, please stay for dinner."

The landlady was stunned for a moment. She looked at the sky. She was about to say something like, "It's fine in the shop during the day these days, but it's still dangerous at night. It wouldn't be a good idea to ask Mr. Li to deliver it." But suddenly her heart changed. With a shudder, he swallowed back the words, then his wonderful eyes moved, and he glanced at Li Yuan not far away.

But I saw that the young man had a strong physique, with prominent muscles in his long legs and arms, and his back was as straight as a spear, giving people a strong sense of strength.

Although his face is not handsome, it is very attractive. There is not much arrogance and domineering in his expression, but there is a calmness and restraint that is very different from a teenager. And because they are familiar with each other, they feel a little more familiar when they look at each other.

Thinking of how many times this young man sought good fortune and avoided disaster, he was fine in the corpse case, and later became Mr. Li's student; now in the battle between the Wei family of the Blood Knife Sect, he was fine after Zhao Zimu died, but continued to advance one step higher. Moved directly into the inner city.

Thinking back to the first time we met, this young man was just a simple hunter from the mountains. He was just a guy with a silly smile who followed Lao Wang, the waiter in the restaurant, to sell meat.

The landlady felt a little more fantasy and sense of security.

Yan Yu saw her in a daze, pulled her back and said with a smile: "Sister Xue, will you stay?"

The landlady bit her lip, suddenly feeling a little tingling and anticipation in her heart, then she nodded slightly and said, "Then I'll stay."

After a while, when the oxcart returned, Aunt Wang cooked the food and brought it to the dining hall. She took the children back to the house to eat, and then started to boil water again.

In the dining hall, Li Yuan was sitting in the middle, while two women, one on the left and one on the right, were eating and chatting next to him.

"Grandma Yan, this mansion is really big. I have never seen such a big house in Lianglongshan." The landlady seemed a little excited, her cheeks red.

Yan Yu sighed: "Sister Xue, eh, it's a pity that such a big house is empty, only the five of us live there."

The landlady's beautiful eyes moved, "As Mr. Li, if I buy some maids and nursing homes, won't it be empty? If it is inconvenient for Mr. Li, I can leave it to me."

Yan Yu said: "I told him to buy some on the black market, but he refused."

"why?"

"Who knows what he thinks?"

The two women were laughing and talking back and forth, seeming to have completely forgotten about Li Yuan next to them.

But while eating, somehow the topic suddenly came back to Li Yuan.

Yan Yu said: "Sister Xue and a few maids live in Baiyun Lane. It's quite boring. Why not move in with us?"

The landlady said: "Grandma Yan is laughing at me again. I'm not from the inner city. How can I live here?"

Yan Yu said: "Sister Xue is so young and beautiful, but she lost her husband's family early. Do you want it?"

Suddenly, she stood up lightly, ran behind Li Yuan, put her hands around his neck, then looked at the landlady with a bright smile and said, "How about finding another man as good as my husband-in-law?"

The landlady's face turned red.

She was considered a strong woman who could handle all kinds of things outside, but she only dared to think about matters between men and women late at night, when she was under the quilt.

She may seem smooth, but she is also a bit arrogant in her heart. It is impossible for ordinary men to fall in her eyes.

However, she longs for it after all

After all, she was still young, still beautiful, her body was still full of vitality, and she had no children yet.

"I'm already married." The landlady lowered her head and hesitated. Her white pink neck was burning red in the candlelight. Fang felt like there was a deer bumping around in her heart, and her legs were slightly twisted. , tightly packed together.

Mrs. Yan giggled and said, "Only those who have been married know how to love a man. Don't you think so, sir?"

Li Yuan looked at the landlady.

Yesterday, my wife also told him everything about the boss's wife.

The landlady’s name is Xue Ning, 23 years old, from Lianglongshan. Five years ago, she and her husband’s family fled here with their loyal servants due to a shipwreck. However, after arriving in Shanbao County, within a few days, her husband’s family was frightened due to the long journey. And the body deteriorates and dies.

Normally, in this situation, it would be good if Xue Ning didn't get eaten by others, but she was a strong and capable woman, and she actually opened the Hengwu Restaurant.

In addition, she also has a group of beggars outside.

She grasped the power of this beggar not by giving money or anything else, but by supporting him with righteousness. For example, she handed over the food in the restaurant so that the beggar could eat it without getting it dirty; for example, she paid for the medical treatment of a beggar who was about to die. For example, she would occasionally give some water and wine; for example, she would help coordinate conflicts; for example, at some banquets, she would leave a table in the corner for beggars.

Various small favors, coupled with the fact that she spoke boldly outside, gave the beggars dignity. After learning about her experience, many beggars admired her and secretly called her big sister. In addition to taking the initiative to help her explore various information , and will also take the initiative to protect the restaurant when it encounters a crisis.

On the surface, there were guards guarding the house, but secretly, with the help of many beggars, Xue Ning took root in Shanbao County.

It can be said that this landlady is a woman who has money, means, and some small influence. She also knew Li Yuan before she became rich.

She needs Li Yuan.

Li Yuan also needs her.

This is not just business, mutual benefit, and to some extent, physical as well.

"Isn't that right, sir?" Lady Yan pushed her man.

Li Yuan looked at the landlady and said, "Sister Xue, are you willing? If you are willing, Sister Yan will be the eldest and you will be the second."

Xue Ning blushed, twisted her legs, lowered her eyes and said: "I am willing to do it, but please don't let me bear any responsibility."

Li Yuan said sternly: "I will never be in trouble for the rest of my life."

Xue Ning also said seriously: "I will never let you down."
