Leave the bamboo house.
Qu Jian'er followed Zuo Chen, who was leading the way, and arrived in front of a nine-story ancient-style pavilion.
By observing the various entryways and decorative items, she was certain that a feng shui master had visited and consulted with the Zuo family.
Qu Jian'er looked around: "Breaking the evil spirits? I remember that since the Xingyuan era, feng shui masters and fortune tellers have declined. How come your Zuo family knows a feng shui master?"
The Celestial Masters sect has many branches.
Taoist priests, fortune tellers, feng shui masters, and so on are all among them.
Not to mention the Xingyuan era, there weren't many Feng Shui masters who appeared in the public eye before the Xingyuan era either.
To determine the feng shui, one must match the birth chart (Ba Zi) to locate the burial site.
Qu Jian'er could tell that the Zuo family's geographical location was even better than that of the Ming Palace in the empire.
Although District 19 is located at the head of the dragon vein, it is far inferior to the old residence of the Zuo family.
To put it simply, the old house occupies the area in the opposite direction of the dragon vein.
The Zuo family's old residence is even more in line with the dragon vein than the palace where the royal family of District 19 resides, and it is not afraid of any evil influences.
The saying goes, "When the home is peaceful, everything is at ease."
Perhaps the fact that such a feng shui master could be found is one of the reasons why the Zuo family and Zuo Chen are still alive.
Zuo Chen didn't understand, but said, "The things in the house have been arranged like this since our ancestors' time."
Qu Jian'er frowned slightly and nodded: "A long time ago... if there were no outsiders, then your ancestors either knew a feng shui master or were feng shui masters themselves."
When she stopped at the gate of the Zuo family, although she was still drunk, she could still feel the smooth flow of good fortune in the Zuo family, and there was not a single vengeful spirit in the vicinity that dared to disturb her.
She was quite certain that everything in front of her was the work of a master, but as for who it was, she was afraid she would never have the chance to know.
Zuo Chen didn't know what his ancestors were like.
All he knew was that the Zuo family was now just an ordinary family.
Zuo Chen politely led the people into the nine-story building: "I have lived alone since I was three years old. This building was the residence that my grandfather chose for me when he was alive."
His grandmother passed away long ago, and his grandfather passed away when he was nine years old.
Compared to other families, the Zuo family is the only one that has not had a direct line of elders yet still managed to grow so large.
As a door opened.
Qu Jian'er saw the living room, which was full of positive energy and was designed to be bright and sunny.
The decor was clearly not what Zuo Chen wanted.
Zuo Chen gestured for Qu Jian'er to go in and look, his tone tinged with helplessness: "Although my mother doesn't concern herself much with affairs, she takes great care of my daily life and does everything herself."
Although he disliked this cozy style, a sense of happiness shone through his eyes.
Qu Jian'er quietly looked at Zuo Chen.
His family brought him a lot of joy.
That's one way to put it.
Zuo Chen became the villain.
It's simply that those people crossed his bottom line and hurt his vulnerabilities.
This forced Zuo Chen to become an enemy.
Zuo Chen had a happy and fulfilling childhood.
He is not a flawed or tyrannical person, and would never be an enemy of the entire empire.
Even now, Zuo Chen.
He wouldn't have thought of overthrowing the empire if he hadn't been told about all the empire's plundering of him.
Even with a hardened heart, there is a soft spot—the light of family companionship.
The Zuo family places great importance on history.
Some buildings still retain their traditional style.
In some ways, it is also traditional, such as taking photos to create a photo album that represents the little things in life.
Zuo Chen had assumed that Qu Jian'er would look at the photos on his wall immediately.
Who knows?
The other person was staring at him intently.
Zuo Chen's Adam's apple bobbed up and down: "Cough."
Qu Jian'er's eyes were full of worry for Zuo Chen, and she unconsciously moved closer to him.
I want to give the other person a hug.
Even if.
He knew that the other person's strength meant he didn't need a hug.
Approaching people.
At that moment, Zuo Chen had to admit that his exposed skin was trembling slightly.
The distance between the two closed.
This made both sides somewhat nervous.
After Qu Jian'er realized what was happening, she immediately stopped in her tracks: "Uh, it's a very cozy home."
Honestly.
She envied Zuo Chen.
Two lifetimes combined.
She only had a little over ten years of happy times.
After the old abbot left, she became homeless and, along the way, she envied many, many people.
Zuo Chen saw the envy in Qu Jian'er's eyes: "No need to be envious, you will have it too."
He swallowed some of the words that expressed his feelings.
The secret thought: Now is not the best time.
Qu Jian'er smiled and said, "Thank you for your kind words."
She was unusually sensible.
Perhaps she also longed for a happy family, which is why she tried so hard to increase the number of members in the Taoist temple.
Qu Jian'er looked at the photos on the wall.
On Zuo Chen's face, all she saw was the other person's haughty reluctance to look at the camera.
Even when Zuo Chen was just a chibi-style character, he was wearing a suit and small glasses.
Even now, he still wears a suit and tie, but with his glasses on, he looks more refined.
Qu Jian'er looked at Zuo Chen, remembering his birthday: "I'm going out for a bit, I'll try to be back before evening."
She did not explain what she was going to do.
Only one person remained, slightly stunned.
Zuo Chen thought Qu Jian'er was very enthusiastic about his bedroom, but who knew it was just a fleeting interest.
He looked slightly depressed.
Watching Qu Jian'er's retreating figure, he took off his glasses, sat down, and sighed softly.
Qu Jian'er left the Zuo family's house and rushed to a high-end eyeglasses store.
