Chapter 47 Grace

Zheng Fa quickly understood why Gao Yuan said that the Seventh Young Master had become like him.

On this day, the morning light had just illuminated the eaves of the roof, and dewdrops were still hanging on the grass leaves by the roadside.

As soon as Zheng Fa and Gao Yuan arrived at the study, they saw the Seventh Young Master sitting upright, reading a book called "Complete Explanation of Talismans". The brush in his hand was drawing on the paper as he read and wrote, looking very serious.

Zheng Fa couldn't help but turn his head and look at Gao Yuan, who nodded slightly at him.

"How long have you been ill?"

"Two days." Gao Yuan replied.

“This is a huge stimulus!”

Zheng Fa frowned. It was really abnormal for the Seventh Young Master to behave like this.

Among the three of them, it is hard to say whether Zheng Fa or Gao Yuan is the most hardworking and serious one, but the laziest one is definitely the Seventh Young Master.

Normally when they came in the morning, the Seventh Young Master hadn't even gotten up yet, let alone sat at the table and studied so seriously and proactively.

Gao Yuan said that the Seventh Young Master was as accurate as he described:

Zheng Fa was used to memorizing what was written in books and then slowly understanding them. To others, it seemed that he was daydreaming instead of reading most of the time.

Gao Yuan liked to ponder over books, taking notes while reading, and would scratch his head when he encountered difficult problems - just like the Seventh Young Master who was scratching his head madly now.

Bang! The Seventh Young Master at the table angrily threw the pen in his hand, stood up, stared at the book in front of him and gritted his teeth, as if he wanted to fight this book for three hundred rounds.

After sulking for a while, he looked up and saw Zheng Fa and others standing at the door.

"Master, what are you doing?" Zheng Fa asked.

"Huh...my mother told me that my sister is coming back." The Seventh Young Master said with a long sigh.

"Miss? Didn't Miss go to the Immortal Gate? Is she coming back?"

After all, Zheng Fa grew up in a manor and was not as familiar with the relationships within the mansion as Gao Yuan. Only after listening to him did he learn that the legendary elder sister of the seventh young master was the immortal seed of this generation in the Zhao mansion and the eldest in the mansion.

"But what does the eldest lady's return have to do with your hard work, Seventh Young Master?" Zheng Fa still didn't quite understand the change in the Seventh Young Master.

"Although my sister went to the Immortal Sect, she wrote to my mother every ten days or so. The letters were full of words asking my mother to urge me to study the magic seriously, and she also said that she would test me when she came back."

I see, Young Master Seven is suffering from pre-exam syndrome.

"But if the young lady wants to test you, just let her do it. Why do you care so much?" Gao Yuan asked.

Zheng Fa understood what he meant. If the Seventh Young Master had a little respect for exams and a little shame for his grades, he would not have become the secret disciple that Mr. Shen was unwilling to mention.

"You don't understand my sister." The Seventh Young Master's face looked a bit like he couldn't bear to look back. "When I was a kid, I went to play with my brothers in the front yard. My sister came to the front yard with a stick and beat them so hard that they couldn't get out of bed for three days."

"My sister was only ten years old at that time."

Zheng Fa has now heard a little about the layout of the Zhao Mansion. The power of the Zhao Mansion is generally in the hands of the Madam, but the front yard is under the jurisdiction of the Master of the Zhao Mansion, the Seventh Young Master's father, and the Madam hardly cares about it.

The front yard and the back yard are clearly divided. The owner of the Zhao Mansion in the front yard doesn't care about worldly affairs. It is said that he behaves in a dissolute and unrestrained manner, indulges in wine and sex, and keeps many beauties and illegitimate sons and daughters in the front yard.

The so-called brothers of the Seventh Young Master are probably these people. As for his fooling around, they are probably his inner-house tricks.

Gao Yuan understood the situation better and said with emotion: "An elder sister is like a mother. The eldest lady really loves the young master."

The Seventh Young Master grinned, "After she returned to the backyard, she beat me up too. I didn't get out of bed for three months. If she knew that I had been, uh, a little slack in the past ten years..."

Zheng Fa: ...She is a tiger mom. No wonder the Seventh Young Master is so panicked.

…

At lunch time, Zheng Fa left the study and walked towards his home. Ever since his mother and sister moved into the Zhao Mansion, Zheng Fa almost always went home to eat at mealtime.

Looking at his back as he walked away, the Seventh Young Master let out a breath and leaned back in his chair, seeming to be quite relaxed.

"Young Master?" Gao Yuan looked at him, then looked at Zheng Fa who was walking away.

"Gao Yuan ah..." The Seventh Young Master stood up, walked to Gao Yuan, and patted him on the shoulder: "I was too harsh on you before."

He suddenly spoke human language, so that Gao Yuan's face was filled with horror: "Master, if the young lady wants to beat you, I won't be able to stop you!"

"roll!"

His eyes were still looking at the direction where Zheng Fa was going away, but the Seventh Young Master recalled what his mother had said to him before.

Zheng Fa...if there is no Nascent Soul Master behind him, how can he cultivate into the "Spirit Crane Body"?

As for why Zheng Fa didn't tell me, my mother also said: He is just a mortal, and he was born as a family slave, how dare he reveal the whereabouts of Yuanying Zhenren? Even the Seventh Young Master was not too worried about what the Yuanying Zhenren had in mind for his family.

The Zhao family really had nothing worthy of Yuanying Zhenren's intentions. If they really had intentions, with Yuanying Zhenren's strength, why would they bother with so much trouble? His mother guessed with him for a long time and felt that the most likely scenario was that Zheng Fa was extremely talented and was favored by Yuanying Zhenren, who was preparing to accept him as a disciple.

"Master, I used to think that you were a little petty, always liked to compare yourself with others, and were full of little thoughts. You were not happy." The Seventh Young Master said to Gao Yuan with some emotion: "I really looked down on you."

plateau:"……"

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

"Now I finally understand you. It's normal for you to have some small thoughts around Zheng Fa."

"Master, I am not what you said..."

Gao Yuan tried to defend himself.

"Stop talking, I understand you! Alas, now Zheng Fa is Yuan... is valued by others," the Seventh Young Master stopped blurting out the word Yuanying and said vaguely: "In the past, I was the young master and he was the book boy. No matter how powerful he was, I didn't feel anything."

The Seventh Young Master recalled that no matter how talented Zheng Fa was, he had always looked down on him.

After all, no matter what, Zheng Fa is still his servant. Even if he has the qualifications to ascend to heaven, the Zhao family must provide him with the path to heaven.

But now…

"It's easy for him to go to the Immortal Gate now. I feel uncomfortable around him." The Seventh Young Master was troubled. "When I think about my sister going to the Immortal Gate, and Zheng Fa going to the Immortal Gate... I'm the only one left. Don't I look like a loser? I haven't been able to sleep well these past two days!"

Gao Yuan didn't understand everything, but he understood one thing.

The Seventh Young Master became so hardworking, not only because the eldest lady was coming back, but also because Zheng Fa was too talented, which made the Seventh Young Master anxious.

I don’t even want to stay with Zheng Fa anymore!

I felt the trust and kindness that the Seventh Young Master and I had towards me, which was very different from before.

Gao Yuan smiled brightly, feeling excited:

Zheng Fa, let me make you stand out from the crowd! Although I cannot compare to you in other aspects, from now on, I will be the only one to receive the young master's favor!

"Master! From now on I will..." He was ready to show his loyalty again.

"With Zheng Fayi next to me, I feel like I can't do anything better than him. I feel like a loser." The Seventh Young Master interrupted him and said with a gentle look at Gao Yuan, saying with emotion:

"But as soon as I saw you, I felt much better. You are not as talented as him in literature, and you are even worse in martial arts. You don't even have any talent for spells. The only thing that is better than him is that you have a better family background and are whiter than him... Oh, now you are not as white as him."

The smile on Gao Yuan's face gradually froze.

"When I look at you, I think, you are so useless but still fine, I am still a young master after all, and my heart is not so painful all of a sudden." As he said this, the Seventh Young Master also said sincerely: "Gao Yuan, from now on, I can't live without you."

Gao Yuan: ...Is this grace so hurtful?
