Chapter 271 Father-in-law is coming
It was the first time for Old Liu, Mrs. Ouyang, and Liu Qin to visit the capital, and they were really surprised by how prosperous the place was.

Especially Lao Liu, he had been to Guangzhou and seen the prosperity there, but he didn't expect that Beijing was so much better than Guangzhou.

When they arrived here, they finally understood what an imperial capital was like, with cities from all over the world gathered here.

The merchants in the markets are all from far and wide, and those who run around seeking profit are all from the five directions.

Bamboo fans from Nanba, rattan boxes from Guangdong, mats made of gold from Qizhou, bridles made of gold from southern Yunnan, ginger and cinnamon from Jiangnan, silk and horns from Longmen, merchants like clouds, and iron chess pieces.

This is the heart of the empire and the most prosperous city of this era.

Passing through the commercial district and entering Nanxunfang, there seemed to be some kind of barrier that isolated all the noise outside, with only the sound of horse-drawn carriages.

When Liu Zhengfeng saw Taoist Tianmen, Taoist Wang Chengwu, Yue Lingshan and others outside the Ou Mansion, he was delighted and immediately walked over to them and bowed, saying, "Masters, Lingshan, I haven't seen you for a long time!"

"Liu Renxia."

"Uncle Liu."

The people who came to greet him bowed and said, "Thank you for your hard work!"

"Now that I've met you all, this little bit of hardship is nothing." Liu Zhengfeng stroked his beard, looking relaxed.

He is both a chivalrous knight and a landlord and businessman. He has traveled to many places. Although this journey is long, he can endure it.

Liu Qing chatted with her mother all the way, and when she got off the carriage, she hugged Madam Ouyang with a slightly blushing face.

She led her parents into the Ou Mansion. After everyone sat down in the living room, Lao Liu felt the cool breeze and said happily, "This is a nice place. It's comfortable to sit down and feel the cool breeze."

Liu Qing smiled and said, "The yard I arranged for Dad is more comfortable. There is a bamboo forest in the yard, and winding paths lead to secluded places."

When Liu Zhengfeng heard this, he said with satisfaction: "That's great, I just can't stand the heat, hahahaha"

When Qu Yang saw Qu Feiyan wearing a skirt and leading the maid to bring out fruits and tea, he immediately looked happy and said softly, "Feiyan."

"grandfather!"

Qu Feiyan smiled, went straight to sit next to Qu Yang, and started chatting with him.

Listening to his granddaughter talking about the happy life she led in the Ou Mansion, Qu Yang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, but at the same time he felt a little melancholy, as if he had let his best friend down.

This time I came to the capital, I also wanted to persuade my granddaughter that there are so many men in the world, why should she focus on this one?

Even if he is young, handsome, talented, good-natured, skilled in martial arts, has status, is caring, is proficient in music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and can write poetry and songs at will.
As Qu Yang thought about it, his heart sank. There are many men in the world, but there is only one as outstanding as Mr. Ou!

When this thought came to my mind, I felt even more sorry for my best friend.

Liu Zhengfeng didn't know how conflicted his friend was. He looked at Liu Qing, squinted his eyes and smiled, "I brought you a lot of good things when I came to the capital this time."

"I know you two like to eat bacon, so during the Chinese New Year, I specially found a good friend from Miaojiang and made a whole pig and half a cow. I brought them all over for you this time! There are also the bamboo shoots from the back mountain that Qingqing likes, but the fresh ones are gone, only dried ones."

"I was afraid that your chef couldn't make the taste of the house taste good, so I brought Chef Wang with me."

Liu Qing immediately felt her mouth watering, and said with a smile: "Thank you, Daddy, I have been thinking about the food at home for a long time! My husband often talks about it, and we went out to look for several Huguang restaurants, but unfortunately it always felt a little lacking in taste."

"Ha ha."

Liu Zhengfeng laughed and looked at his wife and said, "Look, I told them they would be happy with these!"

"Yes, yes, yes, you, Master Liu, are the wisest." Mrs. Ouyang smiled and shook her head, feeling helpless about her husband's behavior.

Liu Qing looked at Taoist Tianmen and Taoist Wang Chengwu and invited them softly, "It's a rare opportunity for you two seniors to come here. Please stay and have a simple meal!"

The two Taoist priests agreed. Wang Chengwu said with a nostalgic look on his face, "Since I left Hengshan last year, I haven't tasted the flavor of my hometown for a year and two months."

Taoist Tianmen stroked his beard and smiled, "It seems that Brother Wang is really greedy. He even remembers the day so accurately." Wang Chengwu laughed. He has been practicing in Hengshan for decades and has long fallen in love with the food there.

Then, Old Liu talked about his experiences along the way and mentioned Yue Buqun and his wife. He specifically instructed Yue Lingshan to take good care of her fellow apprentice here and not to worry about her parents.

After hearing this, Yue Lingshan felt touched and ashamed at the same time. She had been in the capital for such a long time, but she only wrote one letter to report her safety. This was really wrong.

Hua An had been standing aside waiting, and after hearing what his grandfather said, he kept it in mind.

Xiang Danian, Mi Weiyi and Liang Fa got together. Liang Fa and Mi Weiyi knew each other when Ou Zanghua got married last time. They got along pretty well and were acquaintances.

Liang Fa asked the two about the news about his senior brother Linghu Chong. On his way to the capital, he heard some bad rumors and was a little worried.

Xiang Danian and Mi Weiyi looked at each other, and both found it difficult to speak. After all, what Linghu Chong said outside Gui'an County had seriously offended the Liu family of Hengshan.

They have done the most they can by not adding insult to injury.

At this time, Liu Qin couldn't sit still, so she slid to Liu Qing's side and asked in a low voice: "Sister, can I go to the yard for a walk? I want to see."

"Go!"

Liu Qing nodded and instructed Shi Jianxi behind him: "Jianxi, you stay with Xiaoqin. Don't let him go to dangerous places."

"Yes," Shi Jianxi responded, walked to Liu Qin's side and saluted, saying, "Mr. Qin, please follow me."

Liu Qin happily followed Shi Jianxi out, not noticing how deep the look in Madam Ouyang's eyes was when she was looking at him from behind.

The Ou Mansion is much larger than the Liu Residence, with exotic flowers and plants, rugged rocks, small bridges and flowing water, and a new scene at every step.

Liu Qin was very happy to see this and thought that he could improve his own small courtyard after returning to Hengshan.

When we reached a small courtyard, we heard a sound of metal colliding, as if someone was fighting.

He asked curiously, "Sister Shi, where is this place? Can I go in and take a look?"

Shi Jianxi replied softly, "This is the courtyard where the guards of the mansion live. The masters of Huashan Sect live inside. Master Qin can go in and take a look."

After hearing this, Liu Qin became even more interested. He stepped into the yard, raised his head and looked at the two people, one big and one small, fighting with each other. Their sword skills were very exquisite.

"Ok?"

Seeing someone coming in, Feng Buping shook his long sword, shaking off Lingsong's short sword, and looked over with sharp eyes.

Shi Jianxi took a step forward, attracting Feng Buping's attention. After bowing, he introduced: "Mr. Feng, this is Madam's younger brother, Mr. Liu Qin."

Feng Buping's brows relaxed, and he cupped his hands and said, "So it's Master Liu from the Hengshan Sect."

"Mr. Feng."

Liu Qin bowed in return, then looked at Lingsong and said, "This must be Junior Brother Lingsong from Huashan Sect! I met Junior Brother Lingqing in Nanjing, and Uncle Yue also mentioned you!"

Lingsong had been in Beijing for so long, but this was the first time he met someone of his own age, and he immediately felt much happier.

After hearing Liu Qin's words, he couldn't help but miss his master who was far away in Nanjing, so he asked, "Brother Liu, is my master okay? My master's wife should have given birth to a baby, right?"

Liu Qin nodded, "Master Yue is very good. Master Ning gave birth to a boy named Yue Lingfeng. I have seen him, he is very cute."

Feng Buping on the side couldn't help but grit his teeth after hearing this. Damn Yue Buqun, he is so disrespectful even at his age. The Qi Sect is indeed a disgrace to Huashan. The revitalization of Huashan depends on us, the Sword Sect!
Seeing Lingsong and Liu Qin chatting so happily, Feng Buping said, "Lingsong, I'll give you a day off today. You can have a good chat with Master Liu."

"Thank you, Master Feng!" Lingsong smiled even more happily when he heard it.

The two children gathered together, running and climbing the rockery in the yard, and saw a big carp in the pond, and immediately decided to catch one.
