Chapter 210: The Beauty is Sick

Cheng Anran didn't notice her helpless look at all, and continued to chatter: "My brother is as beautiful as a flower, as delicate as a willow, and every move he makes is..."

"etc!"

Han Yueshan interrupted her and repeated in disbelief: "As beautiful as a flower, as delicate as a willow in the wind?"

She said confidently, "My brother is a famous sick beauty, so of course he has to be described like that."

Everyone's mood became increasingly complicated, only Zhao Xue nodded in sudden realization: "So that's how it is."

Cheng Anran raised her head and said proudly: "My brother is weak and has a delicate appearance. Many girls like him."

Li Xiu asked in a complicated tone: "Miss Cheng, have you ever been educated?"

"What?" Cheng Anran looked at him in confusion. The next moment, she slammed the table in anger. "How dare you question my intelligence? I might as well tell you that I read Xuanyue history books at the age of three, and at the age of five..."

A sudden knock on the door interrupted her.

Li Xiu glanced at Tao Zi, who was playing with the tea set indifferently.

He said, "Come in."

The door opened, and a handsome man came into view.

His face was pale, his eyebrows were picturesque, and his clear eyes, with shimmering light, made people's heart beat faster when they glanced at him.

In an instant, everyone understood his identity.

The man looked at Cheng Anran and said, "Xiao Ran, come here, don't make trouble."

She rushed over happily: "Second brother!"

The man coughed several times after being hit. Cheng Anran quickly stood up and helped him to breathe. He also said, "Second brother, I found a wife for you. She has a great figure!"

The man coughed even more violently.

"I'm serious, she's even better than the second young lady of the Li family!"

The man finally recovered and looked at them, saying, "I'm sorry, my sister grew up in the mountains and isn't very familiar with the ways of the world. She's a bit straightforward."

Li Xiu smiled and said, "I understand."

Cheng Anran pursed her lips and said, "If you don't like it, forget it. Why do you say that to me?"

The man touched her head and she immediately obeyed.

He looked at everyone and said with a smile, "My name is Cheng Anyue, and I rank second in the Cheng family. This time, it was my younger sister who got into trouble impulsively and startled you all. If you need anything, please feel free to ask."

It seems that this person should have figured out everything.

Cheng Anran warmly invited: "Sister Tao, do you want to stay at my house?"

Tao Zi looked at her, suddenly laughed, and said, "Okay."

This time, not only Li Xiu and the others were shocked, but also Cheng Anyue.

He looked normal, but Han Yueshan sensitively noticed the alienation between his eyebrows.

Cheng Anyue smiled and said, "My younger sister doesn't know much. After you all move in, if you need anything, just tell me."

Xi Jing and Zhao Xue looked at each other. This was clearly a warning to them - don't even think about taking advantage of Cheng Anran.

Li Xiu looked surprised, but did not say anything.

Tao Zi continued with a smile, "Your sister is well-behaved and cute, she doesn't look like someone who doesn't know anything."

Cheng Anran became happy and looked up at her brother: "See? Sister Tao praised me for being cute!"

Cheng Anyue felt a bit troubled. This sister was good in every way except that she was too familiar and could be easily taken advantage of.

Cheng Anran took Tao Zi's arm and got into the carriage, and Xi Jing was also sitting with them.

She whispered to Tao Zi: "Sister Tao, is my brother good-looking?"

Tao Zi commented objectively: "Well, it's pretty good."

"Yeah, I also think that it's a waste for my brother to be paired with the second young lady of the Li family."

Xi Jing turned around in confusion, and Tao Zi also asked, "Second Miss Li?"

Cheng Anran said gloomily, "I don't like my second brother's fiancée. I really don't like her."

Xi Jing was stunned: "Your second brother already has a fiancée, and you still want to introduce someone to him?"

She snorted, "As long as we're not married, nothing's set. I asked my eldest sister, and she said that my second brother likes the second young lady of the Li family because she has a good figure. Sister Tao, your figure is much better than hers."

"Stop, stop, stop." Xi Jing called out, "It's not okay for you to do this, really."

She said angrily, "But the second young lady of the Li family is not a good person. She hasn't even gotten married yet, but she already has three or four concubines around her."

Xi Jing was stunned and asked her senior sister in a low voice: "Senior sister, is the style of the Central Division so open?"

Tao Zi shook her head silently: "I don't know."

Cheng Anran said angrily, "No, she's the only one like this. Even if others did, they wouldn't be so open and aboveboard."

Tao Zi smiled and coaxed, "If you feel bad, tell your second brother, don't ask anyone else. There might be other reasons."

She responded dejectedly.

Xi Jing looked at Tao Zi in confusion. She always felt that her senior sister's attitude towards this young lady was a little too nice.

After arriving at Cheng Mansion, Han Yueshan and others were amazed by the gardens, hills, flowing water, and various buildings.

The servant led them to a courtyard and said respectfully, "My fellow immortals, this is the courtyard prepared by the Second Young Master."

When Tao Zi and the others walked in, they saw that it was a courtyard, but it actually included a kitchen, servants' rooms, and even a small mountain stream.

It looks like an ordinary family's house, but even better than that.

Xi Jing and others were silent. Is this the luxury of aristocratic families?

The servant who led them here said, "The second young lady will be here soon. Please wait for a moment."

The flower monk nodded calmly: "Thank you."

Li Xiu silently took out two spirit stones and rewarded the servant.

After the servants left, he said from the bottom of his heart: "In this place, gold is useless."

Xi Jing realized belatedly and said, "I haven't even learned the formation of that inn yet."

Tao Zi looked around and said softly, "There are quite a few cultivators around here, most of them are in the Foundation Establishment stage."

Li Xiu praised: "As expected of a noble family."

She smiled, but what Grandma Huang said at that time appeared in her mind.

If Master was only at the Foundation Establishment stage, how could he have rescued Grandma Huang and her sisters? Unless, back then, the Cheng family wasn't as big as it is today.

She lowered her eyes in thought until Cheng Anran rushed over, "It's time for dinner! Do you want to eat alone or in the lobby?"

Han Yueshan thought of Cheng Anyue's attitude and said with a smile, "Let's just eat here and not go over there."

"Then I'll stay here too." She said excitedly, "Eating in the lobby is always so serious, with so much regulation. I don't know if they're just eating or following the rules."

Tao Zi smiled and said, "The servants call you the Second Miss, so you should have an older sister. Is she the eldest lady who married into the Zhou family?"

"Yes, yes, that is my sister. But unlike my father, she is dignified, elegant, amiable and respectable."

Tao Zi smiled and said, "Different father?"

"Yeah, my father and her father are brothers. We have the same grandfather."
