Gongbo Jingfei and Mu Jingling frowned slightly.
Seeing that they didn't seem to welcome people from the Bei family, Mu Nanjin thought while opening the gossip news.
[Beijia? Which Beijia? ]
[Could it be the Bei family that is married to the Gongbo family? ]
She had read the gossip about Gongbo's family and noticed that they had an alliance with a family with the surname Bei.
[If it is really the Bei family, then the person who married into the Bei family seems to be Gongbo Jingfei. ]
[However, it was not Gongbo Jingfei who married into the Bei family, but his descendants. ]
[Fuck.]
[Isn't I his descendant? 】
Gongbo Jingfei, Mu Jingling: "..."
The story of the marriage began when Gongbo Jingfei was sixteen years old.
Back then, he was not only young and energetic, but also too conceited. He liked to make bets with others, relying on his knowledge of divination.
When the Gongbo family, the Bei family and other families entered the secret realm, Gongbo Jingfei made a bet with a junior from the Bei family about how many people would be able to leave the secret realm in the end.
Before entering the secret realm, Gongbo Jingfei had divined and learned in advance that the number of people leaving the secret realm reached 37,557. Therefore, he was confident that he would not lose and initiated the Heavenly Oath.
That is, the loser has to agree to a request from the other party.
Of course, the premise is that the requirements are not too excessive.
Unexpectedly, when everyone was leaving the secret realm, one person was infected with corpse poison.
The man turned into a corpse the moment he walked out of the secret realm, and everyone judged that he was no longer a human. The final result was that only 37,556 people left the secret realm, which means that Gongbo Jingfei lost.
The Bei family proposed to form a marriage alliance with Gongbo Jingfei.
As the request was not excessive, and Gongbo Jingfei had sworn an oath to heaven that he could not go back on his word, he agreed to the matter without hesitation.
However, if the marriage partner cannot be him, then change it to his descendants.
The Bei family did not object.
Gongbo Jingfei, however, had been dragging his feet on finding a partner, especially after he knew that the secret realm gamble was a trap set by the Bei family. He no longer wanted to get married and have children as the Bei family wished. It was not until he met Mu Jingling that he decided to get married, and then he gave birth to Mu Nanjin.
When Mu Nanjin's baby was one month old and one hundred days old, the Bei family also came and brought many gifts.
Later, Mu Nanjin was taken away by Mu Qinyi. The Bei family heard from somewhere that Mu Nanjin was a useless spiritual root and decided to cancel the engagement.
Therefore, in the past twenty years, Gongbo Jingfei and others have heard many times that the Bei family wanted to cancel the engagement, but the Bei family has never taken any action.
Gongbo Jingfei thought of this and looked at Mu Jingling.
They certainly hoped that the Bei family would cancel the engagement, but the news that Mu Nanjin was a cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing Stage had already spread, so it was probably impossible for the Bei family to cancel the engagement.
The servant replied, "The Bei Family Patriarch came with the Bei Family's five elders, and with them came the Bei Family's hundred guardians, so they are quite powerful."
Gongbo Jingfei was even more certain that the other party was not here to cancel the engagement.
He sighed secretly: "Please let them in."
"yes."
The servant retreated.
Mu Jingling conveyed a message to Gong Bo Jingfei worriedly.
[Do you really want to marry Nan Nan to the Bei family who set you up?]
Gongbo Jingfei sneered.
Do you think I could do that?
〖Even if I am willing, Nan Nan may not be willing.〗
With Mu Nanjin's strength, there is no way to force her to do something she doesn't want to do.
〖Don't worry, I have a solution.〗
〖Unless Nan Nan likes someone from the Bei family.〗
At this time, the servants brought in people from the Bei family.
"Master, bring the people from the Bei family here."
Gongbo Jingfei stood up and smiled welcomingly: "Welcome, welcome to the Bei family master."
Bei Henggen smiled happily: "Master Gongbo, long time no see, I hope you are well."
"I hope you are well." Gongbo Jingfei invited them to sit down. "First of all, we haven't seen each other for two or three hundred years, right?"
When Mu Nanjin celebrated her full moon and hundredth day, Bei Henggen was in seclusion and could not be there in person, so the Bei family's great elder brought people to congratulate her.
Bei Henggen nodded and said, "I have been in seclusion for exactly three hundred years and only came out two days ago. Not only did I miss your wedding, but I also missed your daughter's full moon and hundredth day. I want to apologize here."
"Master Bei is so polite."
Bei Henggen glanced at Mu Jingling and Mu Nanjin on the opposite side and said, "Master Gongbo, the two female cultivators on the opposite side are not your wife and daughter, are they?"
"That's right." Gongbo Jingfei introduced Mu Jingling and others to them.
Bei Henggen looked at Mu Nanjin and his eyes lit up: "Is this Gongbo Nanjin? He is so handsome, as if he was cast in the same mold as the head of the Gongbo family."
"Thank you."
Mu Jingling and Mu Nanjin stood up and saluted Bei Henggen and the others: "Greetings, Master Bei."
"Madam, Young Master, there is no need to be so polite." Bei Henggen smiled at them, and then introduced the young man next to them: "I would like to introduce the head of the Gongbo family, Madam Gongbo, and Young Master Gongbo. This is my great-grandson Bei Zhanlei."
Bei Zhanlei bowed to Gongbo Jingfei and the others: "Meet the head of the Gongbo family, Madam Gongbo, and Young Master Gongbo."
Mu Nanjin knew at a glance that the other party was the one that the Bei family wanted to introduce to her, and immediately checked out Bei Zhanlei's character from the gossip news.
[Bei Zhanlei is not only good-looking, but also calm and of good character. He is also a cultivator in the Void Refining Stage. He is indeed a very good candidate for a husband.]
[It's a pity that the Bei family's intentions are not pure, Bei Zhanlei has someone else in his heart. ]
Gongbo Jingfei and Mu Jingling were quite satisfied with Bei Zhanlei when they heard the first sentence, but the second sentence made them completely give up on the Bei family.
Gong Bo Jingfei said with a smile: "I have met Little Friend Bei a few times. Little Friend Bei is indeed a young man personally trained by the head of the Bei family. He is a cultivator in the Void Refinement Stage at such a young age. Not bad, not bad."
Bei Henggen's eyes were filled with pride, but he still said modestly: "No matter how powerful my great-grandson is, he can't compare to Young Master Gongbo. Before I came here, I heard that Young Master Gongbo was already a cultivator in the Tribulation Crossing Stage before he was twenty years old. I wonder if this is true?"
Gong Bo Jingfei laughed and said, "The outside world is exaggerating. How can a person under 20 years old be a cultivator at the Tribulation Crossing Stage? Even if he is 200 years old, it is impossible for him to cultivate to the Tribulation Crossing Stage. Master Bei, am I right?"
Bei Henggen couldn't help but nodded.
"This time we came..."
Before Bei Henggen finished speaking, a servant from Gongbo's family rushed to the door and said, "Master, the master of Jimo family wants to see you urgently."
Gongbo Jingfei asked the servant, "Do you know what this is about?"
The servant said, "He didn't say."
Gongbo Jingfei couldn't help but look at Bei Henggen: "Master Bei, look..."
Bei Henggen said generously, "Since Patriarch Jimo has something urgent to discuss, Patriarch Gongbo will go see Patriarch Jimo first."
"What about you?"
"My business is not urgent. We can talk about it later."
Gongbo Jingfei stood up and said, "Please forgive me for the poor hospitality of the Bei family. I will come to you as soon as I have sorted out the matter. Ah Ling, please arrange accommodation for the Bei family."
"OK."
Mu Jingling arranged for the people from the Bei family and returned to the room, only to see Gongbo Jingfei sitting leisurely at the table in the room looking at the account book.
She was slightly stunned: "Aren't you going to see the head of the Jimo family?"
Gongbo Jingfei couldn't help laughing: "That's what I said to deceive Bei Henggen."
Mu Jingling was puzzled: "Ah? Why did you lie to him?"
Gongbo Jingfei snorted coldly: "Of course it is to prevent him from mentioning the engagement with our Gongbo family."
Mu Jingling didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Aren't you afraid that the Bei family will expose your lies?"
Gongbo Jingfei looked undecided: "I have colluded with the head of the Jimo family. The Bei family cannot expose my lies. It would be better if they could. Then they would know that I don't want to marry my daughter to someone from the Bei family. I hope the Bei family will back down because of this."
Mu Jingling also didn't want her daughter to marry someone else just after she came back. It would be best if her daughter could stay with her for the rest of her life.
Gongbo Jingfei asked: "Where is Nannan?"
"She's back in her yard. Do you want to look for her?"
"Since I lied to the Bei family and told them that the head of the Jimo family had an urgent matter, I must pretend to be more convincing. Therefore, I cannot appear at Gongbo's house for a while. I will have to wait until the Bei family leaves before I can appear. This way, I cannot take charge of the overall situation at Gongbo's house. I can only let Nannan take charge of Gongbo's house."
"But..." Mu Jingling frowned slightly: "She had no intention of taking over Gongbo's family before, and she will not change her mind even if you mention it now."
Gongbo Jingfei said unhappily: "She was only asked to take charge of the overall situation, not to handle official business. As long as it is something that only the head of the family can handle, just let her go."
"You can ask Nan Nan, but you can't force her."
Gongbo Jingfei said helplessly: "I know."
Meanwhile, Mu Nanjin was lying in a rocking chair in her yard reading a storybook.
Suddenly, she felt very sleepy, so sleepy that she couldn't open her eyes no matter how hard she tried.
She closed her eyes and fell asleep, then heard a man calling her.
"Mu Nanjin."
This voice sounded very familiar, as if I had heard it somewhere before.
"Mu Nanjin."
Mu Nanjin asked: "Who is calling me?"
"It's me, the system."
"system!?"
Mu Nanjin almost forgot its existence: "You finally showed up. Where have you been for the past two years?"
"I've been watching you from the dark, I haven't gone anywhere."
Mu Nanjin: “…”
The system said again: "Take over Gongbo's family."
"ah?"
The system said again: "Take over Gongbo's family."
Mu Nanjin wondered: "Why?"
The system didn't speak.
"System? System, are you still here?"
Mu Nanjin called out several times but got no response.
"Oh my god, he disappeared again?"
"Or did you deliberately keep silent? And then hide in the dark and watch me?"
"System, are you still there?"
〖Nannan……〗
Gongbo Jingfei's voice interrupted.
Mu Nanjin frowned.
〖Nannan……〗
Mu Nanjin tried hard to open his eyes and found himself still in the yard of his uncle's house.
"Nannan, Gongbo's family is now in your hands. Don't worry, you don't need to handle official business. You just need to take charge of the overall situation."
Gongbo Jingfei was conveying the message to Mu Nanjin in his room.
Mu Nanjin readily agreed: "Okay."
Gongbo Jingfei: "..."
If I ask you to handle official business, you will have to sever ties with my uncle's family.
You agreed so readily that I don't need you to handle official business . Are you really that afraid of handling official business?
It's good that you can agree to it.
There will always be a way for you to handle official business in the future.
Thank you panda Nuo for the reward, mua.
