Chapter 263 He felt that Xiao Ying looked familiar, as if he had seen her somewhere before
This time when he went to Chenjia Village, Ning Yuanchen only brought two people: an attendant and a coachman.
In fact, these two people are masters trained by the Ning family. The coachman is comparable to the fourth level of Qi Refining, and the follower is even comparable to the fifth level of Qi Refining.
With the protection of these two people, there is no need to worry about your life as long as you don’t encounter top masters.
The four-horse carriage was pulled very fast and arrived at Chenjia Village in less than half an hour.
As soon as he entered the village, Ning Yuanchen had a different feeling.
Although this village looks shabby and poor, and is far worse than Yun'an County, the people are very positive and full of vitality and energy.
What surprised him even more was that these people were not at all surprised to see his carriage. They just looked at it from afar and made comments from time to time. They did not seem like ignorant mountain villagers at all.
However, when he thought of Xiao Ying who was granted the title of Ru Ren, he understood and couldn't help but smile.
The driver found a villager to ask about Xiao Ying's residence. The villager looked at him and said, "As expected," as if he was used to it. It seemed that many people had come to look for Xiao Ying.
"Sir, this is it."
Finally arriving outside the house, the coachman slowly stopped the carriage and lifted the curtain with one hand.
Ning Yuanchen got off the carriage and raised his eyebrows at the house in front of him which was neither big nor luxurious. How could Mrs. Xiao, who could make spicy sesame oil, soap, potatoes and cement, live in such a place?
Is this what they call hiding in the city, returning to nature, and the simplest way?
He tapped his palm with his folding fan and winked: "Go knock on the door."
Little did they know that when the carriage was at least two hundred meters away from the house, Ling Yun came to report the matter.
Although he didn't know who the visitor was, Xiao Ying immediately closed the defensive formation to prevent the other party from getting close to the house and arousing suspicion.
Therefore, as soon as there was a knock on the door, Minglu opened the gate.
He Changgui and Kang Ruolan went to the county town to work, and the responsibility of doorman temporarily fell on Minglu.
As for Xiao Junxue, Xiao Fan and Xiao Li who were brought back the day before, they were sent by Xiao Ying to build a college. They were idle anyway.
"Sir, who are you looking for?"
Looking at Ning Yuanchen, who was dressed in gorgeous clothes and handsome and elegant, a hint of surprise flashed across Minglu's eyes.
One look at his figure and demeanor revealed that he came from a wealthy family, and an extremely distinguished one at that, one rarely seen even in the capital.
How could such a person come here?
Ning Yuanchen glanced at him and was quite surprised to find that the little doorman was actually a martial artist.
"Is this where Madam Xiao lives? My surname is Ning, my name is Yuanchen. I have collaborated with her on two businesses before, and I came here today specifically to visit her."
Minglu was stunned. Ning Yuanchen? Could he be the one from the Ning family in Shangjing? His wife was actually doing business with the Ning family, and they were both related?
He had just arrived here and only knew that his wife was doing business, but he didn't know who the business was for.
Hearing this, he was really surprised. It seemed that the lady was even more powerful than he imagined!
However, he was surprised in his heart but did not show it on his face. As someone carefully trained by the royal family, he did have some cunning.
"So it's Master Ning. This is indeed Mrs. Xiao's residence. Please allow me to report first."
He turned around and called Guanqi to watch over him before going to the main house.
"Ning Yuanchen?"
Xiao Ying was also a little surprised when he heard who it was. Could this be the young master that Shopkeeper Yun was always talking about? Just hearing the name, he knew that he had a close relationship with Ning Yuanze.
"Please come in."
When business partners come to visit you, you must treat them well.
Taking advantage of Minglu's opportunity to invite someone, she went into the Immortal Palace and brought Chen Xinghai out. Now that the other three were not there, she needed someone to accompany her.
Fortunately, Chen Xinghai was no longer stage-frightened. Upon hearing this, he quickly tidied himself up and stood at the door to greet him.
Not long after, Minglu led three people into the house. The leader was a handsome young man of about twenty-three or twenty-four, who must be Ning Yuanchen.
Xiao Ying had seen many good-looking men and women, such as herself and Ling Yun, but this was the first time she had seen someone so noble, gorgeous and elegant.
Ning Yuanchen looks somewhat similar to Ning Yuanze, but their temperaments are completely different.
Ning Yuanze is more gentle, elegant, and scholarly; this guy is like a peacock with its tail spread out, luxurious but not offensive.
But she looked away after just one glance, and her eyes instead fell on the two people behind him.
Both of them are quite skilled, especially the one on the right, who is probably not weaker than Xiao Lao San and others.
While she was looking at the three of them, Ning Yuanchen and the other two were also looking around inconspicuously.
He found that although the house was small, it had everything he needed, the decoration was very elegant, and there was a very comfortable atmosphere, but he couldn't put his finger on it.
The attendants and the coachman frowned slightly, feeling that this house was a little unusual.
Especially when he saw the wolf lying at the door, he instantly became alert and even his hair stood on end.
The gatekeeper of this house was actually a wolf? And it didn't seem like an ordinary wolf. The two of them actually felt a terrifying pressure from it, an aura even stronger than their own.
Both of them were tense, feeling as if they had walked into a dangerous place.
Fortunately, this feeling didn't last long and completely disappeared when I arrived at the main house.
"Mr. Ning has come a long way, and I hope I will forgive you for not welcoming you in person."
Xiao Ying walked forward and greeted him gently and politely. Although he had a smile on his face, he was neither humble nor arrogant, and was calm and composed.
"My name is Xiao Ying. Young Master Ning, you can just call me Madam Xiao."
A flash of surprise flashed across Ning Yuanchen's eyes. Was this beautiful woman in front of him Mrs. Xiao?
Isn’t it said that Mrs. Xiao already has four children and is in her thirties?
But the person in front of him looked to be only twenty-three or twenty-four years old. Her appearance and temperament were in no way inferior to the noble ladies in the capital. She was completely different from what he had imagined.
Of course, what surprised him most was that she looked familiar. He felt like he had seen her somewhere, but he was very sure that this was definitely the first time he had seen Mrs. Xiao.
However, these thoughts only lasted for a moment, and he smiled very familiarly and was very polite.
"Mrs. Xiao, you are too polite. I am Ning Yuanchen. I am sorry for the intrusion of your visit. I hope you will not blame me."
"Mr. Ning, you're too modest. It's a great honor for me to have you here," Xiao Ying said politely, then looked at Chen Xinghai beside him. "This is my son, Chen Xinghai. Xinghai, why don't you come and meet Mr. Ning?"
"Meet Master Ning."
Chen Xinghai greeted with a smile, his tone calm.
Unexpectedly, Ning Yuanchen looked at him several times with a rather strange look in his eyes. Why did this person look a little familiar?
His eyes wandered back and forth between Xiao Ying and Chen Xinghai's faces. He almost started to wonder if there was something wrong with his eyes, because everyone looked familiar.
"Mr. Ning, please come in."
Xiao Ying frowned slightly, feeling that Ning Yuanchen's gaze was very strange, and her heart skipped a beat. Could this guy have some weird quirks?
Ning Yuanchen immediately withdrew his gaze, fortunately not being too rude, and walked into the main house with a smile.
Xiao Ying invited him to take a seat, and Ning Yuanchen did not refuse.
Yulan and Cuizhu served tea and snacks, then stood behind Xiao Ying very politely.
Xiao Ying then spoke, "I wonder what important matter has brought you here today, Master Ning?"
